TRAFFIC LIGHTS
Sir, —Would the traffic department lengthen the shades on the red, green, and yellow signals? Motorists travelling from the north at certain times of the day in sunshine cannot easily see whether the lights are on or off. If the shades were lengthened, the lamps would be showing in a dark tunnel.—Yours, etc., LEONARD G. CHECKLEY. July 22, 1947. [The chairman of the City Council traffic committee (Cr. C. D. W. L. Sheppard) said yesterday that the matter was under consideration as a reorganisation of the traffic light system had been authorised by the council.]
