The works are set to continue until September 30, with permission in place for the traffic lights until October 4.
Other roadworks:
Temporary lights are in place at the junction of Eastbury Road and Deacons Hill, near Oxhey Park, while Hertfordshire County Council has been refurbishing the permanent traffic signals since September 4 until Friday, October 4.
The roadworks are reportedly caused "mayhem" one morning all lights were stuck on red and traffic data shows that drivers faced delays for hundreds of metres approaching the junction at points.
