Traffic light sequence is wrong! Massive tailbacks every day.

Reported via mobile in the Traffic lights (NH) category anonymously at 17:38, Wed 1 March 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4274714.

The traffic lights on the A63 Queen street junction are not prioritising the main traffic on the A63 and are instead giving priority to the minor road (Queen street). The lights only stay green for around 15 seconds before they go red which is causing massive tailbacks on the A63 all the way up to the prison. The traffic is free flowing as soon as you get past these lights so it is clear that they are the problem. Issue has persisted for 3 days now but this has happened previously and it took 1 month of daily tailbacks before the issue was fixed. For everyone’s sanity, I hope it can get fixed a little bit faster this time :)
