WE are about to endure six months of misery at Junction 3 on the M27.

It is less than ten years since the last major works at this junction when the idiot powers that rule us decided a traffic light on the westbound Southampton turn would speed up traffic by replacing the filter lane.

There is now a huge jam every morning as a result of this absurd decision.

I am less than confident the new changes will improve things and it is more likely to make things worse.

The entry from Romsey will have a traffic light. Without doubt this will worsen traffic flow for those coming up the M271 to join M27 east bound.
