Customers at Aldi will be told when they can safely enter one of its supermarkets by a new traffic light system installed on the doors.

The German budget retailer said that the system would help to continue social distancing in stores by ensuring too many customers are not jostling for space in the aisles.

A green and red light will be erected above the entrances to its stores, and will signal green if customers are allowed to enter, dependent on the amount of shoppers inside at that time.

Aldi confirmed to MailOnline that the doors will remain closed and locked until the light goes green, and it said that fully trained marshalls will be on patrol in stores at all times ‘if they are required’ to ensure social distancing was being adhered to.
