Lights changing for nothing

Reported via mobile in the Traffic lights category anonymously at 16:40, Saturday 17 January 2026

Sent to Milton Keynes Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8709723.

Hello , is there any chance of syncing the traffic lights to keep traffic flowing on the stoke road on the lakes estate. For example only change to red when vehicles are exiting the side roads and not every 4/5 cars . Most times sat on red light for no reason at all just wondering why this is please, makes no sense .

Updates

  • Unfortunately the traffic lights on the stoke road Bletchley (lakes estate) are still turning red even if there is no traffic coming from side roads I.e Windermere drive

  • Although the lights are staying on green longer they are still changing to red if nothing is approaching from side road . So progress has been made but not completely rectified.

  • Please go and take a look at how the traffic lights operate at Ashland’s , these are spot on . Nothing coming from side road lights stay green keeps traffic flowing , even if they start to change red with nothing coming they immediately change back to green. Failing that put a bloody roundabout back there like there is at the other Windermere drive still can’t understand why it needs traffic lights .
