Phasing of traffic lights at Sunset Rd/Glenfield Rd/Albany Highway

Intersection of Glenfield Road, Albany Highway, Sunset Road and Glendu Road – around 7:30 weekday mornings. Traffic coming up Glenfield Road from Wairau and wanting to turn right into Sunset Road is queuing a long way down Glenfield Rd on a median strip that is not wide enough for cars. At the intersection cars/trucks/buses are trying to merge into the queue and blocking straight through traffic. The cycle length allows for 2 turns into Sunset Road which is great but both are short (one very short - this morning 1 bus got through and the next time 2 cars per lane). Even an extra 5 seconds would make a difference. I appreciate the timing of traffic lights to keep traffic flowing is a complex operation but these lights will cause a crash soon.
