One resident said bumper-to-bumper traffic meant that vehicles were often stuck on the crossing at the junction of Sandhurst Road and Hucknall Lane.

This meant that even when the green man appeared, people had difficulty getting across the road.

It was claimed that a similar situation existed on the crossing next to Bulwell Market Place because of traffic jams from the junction of Highbury Road and Spring Road.
