TRAFFIC problems in the area of the Chequerbent roundabout, especially at peak times, are frequently in the news.

I wonder if phased traffic lights have been considered, similar to the ones at Junction 6 on the M61 and in similar places where they only operate at

busy times.

Because the Chequerbent roundabout is so near to Junction 5 on the M61, which is also busy at peak times and has similar problems, the traffic flow

coming off the motorway would need to be monitored and connected in some way in order to ease the combined situation.
