TO CONTROL TRAFFIC

New System Tried

London, Aug. 12. Experience with the various, sys- tems of automatic traffic control lights, had led to the development of a new in.erlinked system pro- Viding improved progressive work- Ing during the rush hours and great elasticity and less delay at other times, and manufacturers have recently approached the West- minsler City Council with an offer to modify without further charge, the system previously installed charge, system previously installed for the length of Regent Street so as to secure the advantages of the "Repeat puising system."

When the alera dons are made it will be possibe to pass a much greater volume al the traffic through the area at considerably increased speed.

*The Ministry of Transport has approved of the proposals and work 's proceeding with a minimum of in- terference with the working of the existing system. Should I be de cided later to instal the autuma- the control signals at Plecadilly Circus, the apparatus now to be supplied would make the scheme there 'much simpler to design and” set up, and would greatly facilitate a wider scheme of co-ordinated au- tomátic conaci covering Piccadily and the other streets in the sur- rounding area- Britt Wireless
