A new pedestrian crossing has been installed in Lichfield.
The crossing, on the Burton Road (A5127) in Streethay, was put in after complaints from local residents about problems crossing the stretch of road.
Although the road through Streethay is a 30mph zone, villagers claimed motorists often do speeds well in advance of the limit as they enter and exit the A38.
And with a footpath only in place on one side of the Burton Road towards Lichfield, crossing was a dangerous necessity for many.
Staffordshire Highways began work on the new pedestrian crossing in August and as well as the installation of the new traffic lights, a new stretch of pavement has been added along with improved access to the bus stop.
