Obstruction to Highway, 22nd May

54.5423743537326 -1.93147232007988

Road Traffic Act Section 22a. The occupiers of the house on the corner of Low Startforth and the Bowes Road regularly park their vehicles partly on the pavement and partly on the road. In order to overtake the parked vehicles a road user has to cross over onto the Eastbound side of this single carriageway road. The obstruction is also within 15 metres of the junction and causes a hazard to vehicles exiting Low Startforth Road in either direction through reduced visibility. The 2 vehicles both bear Republic of Ireland registration plates and have been there for over a year. I have been required to stop in order to allw traffic coming down the hill to pass safely as there is insufficient room on the Westbound lane. Agricultural vehicles drawing trailers and LGVs experience greater difficulties as they then have to start off on a rising gradient meaning that progress is slowed.

Large items of traffic, 2nd August

This area of Corn Close i know has recently had work done on it. If it was carried out to stop the ground being ripped up by traffic using the verge to navigate through the throng of parked cars in the area, you have succeeded. However large vehicles are still using the route and are still showing a disregard for kerbs and verges. Perhaps it would be easier to provide a solution to the parking problem and stop people double parking, road markings, speed limit indicators may help.

I want to point out that this is an area that children use regularly to get to and from the park and their homes.There are also a few slow moving pedestrians living in the vicinity.I think it may be shrewd to look at the idea of speed bumps to discourage drivers from driving too fast.
