Box junction

[chesblade]

For anyone that travels on Queens road to turn up myrtle road be aware that council are turning on new cameras to pick up anyone blocking box junction

 

[BladeByChoice]

So the council who seem determined to destroy our city are finally doing something right.
I hope it's a £1000 fine and 10 points.

Yeah but it’s guaranteed to have cost £20m to install but the cameras are solar powered to meet net zero with the solar panel being in the shade so they only work 1 hour a day

Oh and the cameras have been installed upside down, facing the wrong way

But other than that?

A great success as it will catch lots of people parked on their driveways

It will also catch any council tax payers who look like they might be mustering to protect a 200 year old tree, or any dog walkers not giving way to cyclists, per their new anti-dog charter.
A busy time for the best run council in the country.

Strange decision IMO. I travel quite a bit through that area and I've never noticed a problem with the junction being blocked. The one at Abbeydale Rd/ Broadfield Rd however........

SCC never change their spots. Keep on taxing and hammering the motorist.

It happens loads at rush hour. When the traffic backs up due to the 400 sets of traffic lights (sequenced by a moron) between Queens Road and Woodseats, loads of drivers keep coming through, sitting in the yellow box and blocking the exits from Havelock Bridge and Shoreham Street.

They want to put box junction cameras on the broadfield road/abbeydale road/sheldon road traffic lights box junction, mind you traffick light settings are ridiculous, at the abbeydale road south/archer road/bannerdale road, the average on green time is about 15-20 seconds, red light time 40-45 seconds.
Morons the council are.

You get fined if you’re NOT in the box junction.

Remember to expect extra matchday traffic around S2 on Saturday, as a lot of uni students are returning.
Please PLEASE allow extra journey time. "Be safe. Be S2 safe."

The whole stretch of Abbeydale from there to Abbey Lane has diabolical junctions/timed lights/lack of lights. I think the right turns onto either Archer Lane or Woodseats Road are the worst.

I have said this on many an occasion - Whoever is in charge of sequencing the traffic lights in Sheffield is a complete cock-socket.

For every change of traffic lights, there is a period of time where nothing is moving. Therefore, if you make them change too frequently you are increasing the time where nothing is moving. I travel the country for my job, and have found no other town or city with such moronically sequenced traffic lights as Sheffield.

It's almost as if SCC are trying to stop us using our cars

Press the loud pedal a bit harder and the brake pedal less, you'll soon be the proud owner of some points.

That’s assuming that they are capable of stringing more than two words together…….one of which will be ‘Like’

I was going to go on one of those smart motorways the other day. But I only had jeans and a t-shirt on.

I don’t think I have ever heard of cock-socket before but I shall definitely use it - thanks fella
You are absolutely right as well by the way, especially the whole of Abbeydale Rd from Queens to Abbey Lane
