The Contractor who is currently carrying out cabling works at the junction of Matheson Road and Springfield Road has accidentally damaged a power feed cable that should feed the traffic lights at the junction. As a result the lights have had to be switched off. 

The Comhairle is in touch with the repair specialists Peek Traffic and hope to get them up to the Island by the end of the week. 

Until that time both drivers and pedestrians are asked to take extra care whilst negotiating the crossing.
