I AM amazed that given the enormous amounts of money made by York council from people who have the misfortune to have to use their car to get into the city, it doesn't have the sense, or decency, to make sure the traffic lights are working correctly.

At most of the lights I use during my travels at least one of the lights has a blown bulb so that makes it very confusing.

Perhaps that is how the revenue keeps increasing - because of the council not spending what they receive from motorists.
