TRAFFIC lights at major pinch point junctions in Hereford could be removed in favour of new roundabouts, according to local transport chiefs.
Herefordshire Council’s infrastructure and transport cabinet member John Harrington says his department will be exploring the possibility of making substantial changes to the road network.
This will form part of the council’s ambitious new masterplan for transport across the county.
Bottleneck junctions being considered include those at The Kerry and where the City Link Road meets Edgar Street, Widemarsh Street and Commercial Road.
“We’ve got to go for it,” Coun Harrington said.
“We are absolutely committed to looking at removing traffic lights off not only on our highways.
