Light timings need to be changed

Reported via desktop in the Traffic lights category anonymously at 16:33, Tue 17 October 2023

Sent to Darlington Borough Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5107333.

Turning right into the college (unsure from the other direction), the timings only allow 3 cars to turn before going red. This causes long unnecessary queues and causes people to jump the lights, especially on a morning. Turning left from the college (Vicarage Road) to Haughton Road, the lights do not allow enough time for queued cars to pass through. People jump lights. Traffic from the right (from the old "Throughabout") often appears to jump the lights or the timing need changing to allow a bigger gap between them turning red and people exiting the college setting off.
