The Traffic Light Tree In London
Traffic Light Tree, Billingsgate Market, London.
Location: 51.506815,-0.010406
Date Filmed: 13-01-2018
Located on a roundabout outside Billingsgate Market, London, created by a French artist Pierre Vivant, made for an art competition.
The "tree" consists of 75 individual sets of Mellor PAGE 1990s Traffic Lights, all controlled from a Peek Controller and includes filter arrow lights and pedestrian signals. All the signals have been designed in a green colour to give the artwork characteristics of a tree.
The artwork tree was originally located on a roundabout in Canary Wharf, installed in 1998 to replace the site of a polluted tree on the roundabout. In December 2011, it was removed, following re-modelling and work on the Canary Wharf site roundabout. The council re-installed the structure between 11th November and 11th December 2013 at its new and current location.
The consistent changing of the lights are suppose to represent the bustling surroundings and everyday life of the busy city of London and Canary Wharf area. I do not know if the signals are turned off during the night but they are turned on for the majority of the average day.
I have seen it previously before in its old location and its new location. I decided to stop when travelling into London to take a few photos and a video to upload to my channel. It is certainly very unique and have not seen anything like this in the UK at all.
Thanks For Watching!
