Heading from maltby towards Rotherham, these lights at the round about are staying on red for too long! Horrendous traffic being caused! My journey to work is now twice as long! It’s ridiculous!

Please urgently rectify the problems with the traffic lights at Hellaby roundabout. As Rotherham road is a single carriageway out of Maltby, the delay on the lights is causing a severe bottle neck of traffic heading from Maltby to the m18 junction, at any time of the day. Usually the journey can be done in 5-10 mins but is now taking 40 minutes and I then have to get to Sheffield. These delays are making local residents late for work, school, college and appointments. This is totally unacceptable when this is the main route out of Maltby. Traffic is trying to detour round Braithwell which is also causing chaos there. I have to make my time back at work when I am late, which I’m sure many other people have to, and if the traffic is going to continue like this, this will have a detrimental affect on my employment.

I leave for work at 6.45am every day and have never had to queue at the hellaby roundabout to enter the m18 south bound. The lights are now on red for 80 seconds and on green for a much shorter period causing massive delays at all times through out the day making people late for work and missing appointments as well as pollution due to stationary traffic in a residential area.

The traffic lights here are always on red for too long and the whole roundabouts signals are wrong. The traffic coming off M18 junction 1 queues up for so long off the slip road and onto the motorway because of the red lights not changing. This then causes more issues on the motorway itself! Fix this immediately please before someone gets killed.

On red too long! The traffic backs up right in to Maltby passed the police station. Absolutely ridiculous!!
Also the traffic from Bramley to m18 is also backing up passed Morrisons, causing traffic to back up passed McDonald’s as well as on the main road. Ridiculous waiting times again, there was no problems before!!

Its nothing but the blind leading the blind tyring to get your voice heard here in rotherham! Absolutely diabolical. Someone with some common sense needs to sort out the lights and control the traffic flow rather than making it worse. And as for this new warehouse testing crap....doesn't money talk!

Traffic lights on m18 motorway towards bramley causing horrendous traffic issues again tail backs from maltby and not even peak period yet and school holidays. Something really needs to be done trying to get in and out of hellaby is shocking.

Traffic lights once again staying on to long and causing traffic to back up to maltby not letting enough Traffic through. It would be better turning lights off altogether at this rate.
