The lights failure is likely to impact on rush hour traffic, with motorists having to carefully negotiate their way through the junction by giving way to others.

It is the same set of lights which had to be replaced last month (August 22) after a car mounted a traffic island and crashed into them.

The cause of the fault is not known at this stage.

Tulketh Brow is a busy crossroads for city centre traffic and regularly becomes congested during morning and evening rush hour.
