The large number of traffic lights in the Marton area creates something of a 'bottle-neck' in relation to traffic flow. In this picture, the down-flow towards the Middlesbrough direction is being held up by the pedestrian crossing near to where the bus is located. Marton shops can be seen in the background of the photograph and Marton Estate Square is just to the left.
