FIXMYSTREET IN DE55 1RY
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of DE55 1RY:
Exit slip road poorly lit, 30th April
A couple of years ago Watchorn roundabout had three of the four slip roads for the A38 upgraded with good LED lighting and improved reflective studs. However when travelling south on the A38 the off sliproad onto Watchorn roundabout never had the new lights fitted and it remains poorly lit, which is a hazard as it's difficult to see the sliproad clearly. I can only presume that whover was in charge of the upgrade thought not to light it because of the nearby hotel or they ran out of money? Can this sliproad have new lighting and also have the reflective studs replaced as a lot don't work now. Thanks

Dirty signs, 30th April
On the southbound carriageway as you approach Watchorn roundabout, most of the signs are that dirty that they are no longer reflective and unreadable. They urgently need cleaning and have been like it for months, maybe years.

2 metre pothole on decent of King street A61, 7th April
Been here for 5+ months and unavoidable if on a bicycle other than slowing right down which is dangerous due to narrow major trunk road to A38 and M1 motorway and the amount of traffic this road carries on a daily basis I am sure many cars are damaged by this missing tarmac!
