Yes that is quite bad there mate actually a lot worse than i thought it would pan out for you. its multiple direct line of sight to the lights.

Its too bad your neighbour's house isn't slightly higher it would have masked most of them.

I'd be looking at erecting a few screening devices, thats made the obs non useable. unless looking straight up or opposite direction. good luck with whatever mitigation measures you decide to go for Dave. ...


Lux measurements are good, but the critical thing from the council / roads dept is that the intersection complies with the regs. This is certainly overkill, you may have to consider in addition to the lux readings contacting a traffic consultant as to what can be taken out / turned off but still retaining the safety of the intersection. Then approach the relevant department with the lux readings / complaint about excessive lighting /lack of sleep / and traffic consultant evidence and suggested remedial actions.
