Wrong end of telescope, Kulveer!

[Martin Cassini]

Boris’s transport adviser, Kulveer Ranger, was quoted as saying, "There are few things more annoying than sitting at a traffic light on red for no apparent reason, and we've now identified 145 sites where we think the signals may no longer be doing a useful job." Of course I agree with his first point, but his second? Out of 6,000 signals in London, he and his well-paid team can find only 145 useless sets? Jeez. I wish I was paid to identify redundant signals. Combining deregulation with other elements such as culture change to make Roads FiT for People, I’d be pushed to find 145 sets which served any useful purpose!
