I have lived in ‘Suffering Park’ for 17.5 years. I drive into Byron town on most days. Sometimes two to three trips a day. I know the traffic conditions and how to time departures to avoid congestion.
I have observed that a good portion of the traffic that can build up in Clifford Street results from drivers, who are turning left from Broken Head Road into Clifford Street, not using their indicator, or not indicating until they are just about to turn left and sometimes not indicating at all. In that time delay, providing there is no traffic coming from Ballina/Lennox Head direction two or three cars could have exited right onto Broken Head Road. Drivers are left waiting, frustrated and with a queue developing.
I think traffic lights would potentially exacerbate this situation.
