Looks like the control tower has since been redeveloped.

I found a few articles stating there were plans to redevelop it, but I wasn't sure how it had progressed. I wish I had a reason to go out there; I would love to see it!

Would you classify this as a six way intersection? (I believe most of these signals are rare late 1970/early 1980's Plessy heads.

Appears to just be a split 4-way intersection.
They/Them for me, please.

It's not that though, you can clearly enter there but why put pedestrian signals there, you can't put a traffic light there.

eek, i wouldn't like to know how much legroom these passengers had.

Not a great bus expert, but i'm guessing this might be a Dennis Dart, these sadly no longer exist in this time of age now.

...Why upgrade? This is probably the greatest way to waste money on signals that are least four years old.
