Traffic lights have stopped working on a major Swindon A-road, and the council are working to repair the issue.

The lights on Thamesdown Drive by the Orbital Shopping Park were reported as not working around 10am this morning, August 6.

A Swindon Borough Council said: “We’re aware of the problem and it should be resolved this afternoon.”

One person observed that traffic was “running well”.

They said: “Looked like they were there about an hour ago trying to repair them. They failed. Traffic is running well no hold-ups at all, just be cautious.”

Update: The council has reported that this issue has now been resolved.
