WORKS to change the traffic flow between Grimsby's Town Hall Square and East Street have been carried out by North East Lincolnshire Council.
In a U-turn to the works carried out by NELC and its partner Cofely as part of the £6-million regeneration of the town centre and introduction of shared-spaces, the end of Town Hall Street is now a give way junction.
Traffic flow had previously been reversed, giving priority from Town Hall Street to Town Hall Square, but the council decided to look again at the junction following complaints from drivers.
A spokesman for NELC said the aim of the move was to allow traffic to flow from Town Hall Square to East Street more freely.
Councillor David Watson, portfolio holder for transportation, said, "Since the junction was changed earlier this year, we have been monitoring it to see how it was used. We have listened to the views of local residents and road-users and taken action to ensure that traffic flows smoothly in the town centre."
