The traffic lights at the junction of Benoordenhoutseweg and Boslaan are being replaced. The existing lights and control system are outdated, and the work will help prevent faults, breakdowns and unsafe situations.
Work began on Sunday 18 October and is expected to finish on Friday 20 November 2026.
Temporary traffic lights will keep the junction accessible to all road users throughout the work. Traffic marshals will direct traffic while these temporary lights are being installed and removed.
Parts of the road will occasionally be closed, including when new detection loops, which sense vehicles in the road surface, are installed. No diversions are planned, but traffic may be heavier than usual, particularly during rush hour. Road users are advised to plan their journeys before setting off.
The new system will use energy-efficient LED lights and respond more effectively to current traffic conditions. It will be set up to help traffic flow smoothly through the junction.
