Potholes in on and off direction in Junction road to 'Old 303', 29th November
There are potholes in the A303 access road in both On and Off directions, right in the regular wheel line. This is a no decelleration lane junction and very difficult to see the pothole in the off direction until you are on top of it. Regular overshoots into signage here - the potholes don't help, and are getting bigger.

Incorrect signage, 28th October
I believe that the signage for this junction is incorrect (eastbound for Holton turning). The sign on the roadside says that the junction is 520 yards but I think it is actually far less than this, perhaps 520 feet??
