Timing of lights causing tailbacks to Clifton Hampden

Reported via mobile in the Traffic Lights (permanent only) category anonymously at 19:27, Tue 2 December 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

The timing of the lights on the bridge does not adapt to predictable variations of demand from the different directions between morning and evening rush hours. As a result there are excessive tailbacks in the morning rushhour in Sutton Courtney going northbound and in the evening tailbacks that frequently stretch as far back as Clifton hampden going southbound. In both cases the opposing traffic is significantly lighter and has little to no tailbacks.

Council ref: 8493748

Asset ID: F184 - Culham Bridge
