Signal upgrade
We are upgrading traffic signals at the junction of Fratton Road/Lake Road and St Mary’s Road in Portsmouth.
Work at the junction comprises upgrading the traffic signals with sophisticated Microprocessor Optimised Vehicle Actuation (MOVA) technology, replacing existing vehicle detection equipment and adding new low-level early-release cycle signals to the junction.
The installation of the MOVA system will improve traffic flow by generating its own signal timings depending on traffic levels, dispersing traffic as efficiently as possible. A new bus priority system will be included in the second phase of the scheme later this year.
