Vehicles Constantly Jumping Red Lights, 3rd April
This ongoing issue with the bridge is beginning to get extremely dangerous, people are constantly jumping the temporary red lights, one person drove round me as I had stopped for a red light and proceeded through the restriction. This is happening more and more often, often at peak times and is an accident waiting to happened, the brow of the bridge obscures the other lights, so vehicles cant see if other vehicles has started to come the other way when the lights are green. Can any thing be done to restrict this issue? Cameras maybe?

Collection of potholes from around 2/3rds way down entry slipway continuing to end of entry slipway, 14th February
Potholes have formed across entire width of slipway starting from around 2/3rds and continuing to the end of the slipway.
Hitting one or many of the deep holes is now unavoidable when merging onto the A12 from the slipway and is especially dangerous in dark conditions, taking attention away from merging onto the carriageway in attempts to avoid damage to vehicles.
Potholes have been present for a number of months now and have been getting steadily worse with the recent cold and wet weather.
