abstract="These reflections on some of the issues that routinely emerge during the design of a new traffic signal junction are based on Phil Shoobridge's career as a consultant and in a County Council. He would have a little more hair, he argues, if more thought had been put into the various proposals that have passed across his desk over the last few years. Highlighting the perils of 'mission creep', the 'phantom specification menace' and faustian contracts', he concludes that the important thing is to remember that engineering is all about communication. If people were prepared to ask more questions, of themselves and others, he believes some of the more obvious crises described in this paper could be avoided.<p />",
