Have you been held up by ‘ghost calling’ of the Papanui Parallel Cycleway traffic lights at the Sisson Drive / Sawyers Arms Road intersection? Council staff have reported that these signals are detecting non-existing cyclists and then allocating them a signal phase which takes time away from traffic movements, leading to congestion, especially in peak hours. Good news: work is continuing on a solution and Council staff report that they are confident that it will be fully resolved in the near future.
