TEMPORARY traffic lights and engineering work in Botley are causing delays to motorists.

There is slow traffic along Botley Road while work on the traffic lights near the Seacourt Park and Ride takes place.

Engineers are working to provide a new power supply to the existing traffic lights.

Delays are expected until this afternoon when work is due to be completed.

Oxfordshire County Council spokesman Dominic Llewellyn-Jones said: “The temporary lights have been installed whilst the council carry out electrical works to the permanent lights.

“The work is expected to be completed today before the evening rush hour.”
