melbourne traffic lights

Ah, Melbourne traffic lights – the city's unofficial test of your patience and ability to interpret cryptic signals while surrounded by a sea of trams and impatient drivers.

These lights are standard Australian models with red, amber, and green signals, but expect frequent waits due to high pedestrian volumes and tram priority systems.

Melbourne also employs countdown timers at some intersections, a godsend for those who like knowing precisely how long their suffering will last.

Common issues include:

• Long wait times during peak hours.
• Confusion caused by tram priority signals.
• Occasional malfunctions leading to traffic chaos.
