MOTORISTS in Hereford are being advised to leave a little extra time for their journey when temporary traffic lights will be used on Aylestone Hill this month (April).
As part of the staggered zebra crossing scheme on this section of road, a high friction surface will be laid on the carriageway on both approaches to the crossings.
It is hoped the new crossing at the top of Aylestone Hill will be a major help to pedestrians wanting to cross at the junction.
The work is to be carried out on a Sunday, April 6, to minimise the disruption to road users.
To allow the work to be undertaken safely, traffic will be reduced to single lane through the use of a four-way traffic signal system.
This method of traffic management is intended to provide a safe area in which the council's contractors can undertake the required works.
