Traffic light problems on sarsfield st.

Have they changed the timing of the lights in the morning?
I usually hit these between 7.45 and 8.10
I know traffic is heavier at 8, but the lights seem to allow very few cars up william st.
Last few days I turn left onto Liddy, or shannon bridge if I remember.

I think the traffic lights around the city are all integrated, and the timings are variable and are adjusted depending on traffic volumes. Don't quote me on that though. I'd like to know more about it myself.

I got caught at these lights this morning too. I was coming from Henry St and turning right onto Sarsfield. Usually there's no delay but traffic was backed up this morning.

I assumed there was a bin truck blocking traffic collecting wheelie bins.

The issue starts outside Hook & Ladder, their delivery guy parks in a lane of traffic to do his deliveries. The bus lane doesn't help either as the driver can sometimes park with the rear of the bus parked in a lane of traffic.
