Litter not picked on central reservation - but grass cut!, 7th May

Tue, 07 May 2024 23:32:42 +0100
54.727472 -1.521581

I never understand who does planning in Highways? I have had several conversations why you don't pick litter to your service agreement anymore and it is all around inconveniencing the drivers and money. Since it costs to close lanes, you like to do it to coincide with other works. So here's an example - all along this stretch of the A1, you have closed lanes to strim the grass down the central reservation. Has anyone thought about picking the litter at the same time? No - so clearly the reasons given are not valid! So now you have to close lanes again, pay twice, employ twice as many people, to strim the grass and then later pick the litter. The problem is twice as bad because you have shredded the litter into hundreds of bits - many of which are now a road hazard because they are blowing all over the highway. Can someone please call me to explain why this most simplest of joined up thinking seems to escape the Highways planning department year after year after year?

There are a number of large potholes from junction 61 to 62 where the lanes increase to 3. There could be a serious accident when a vehicle swerves to avoid them at high speed. Terrible road condition for a motorway.

Issue with Traffic Lights timing., 15th February

Tue, 15 Feb 2022 16:23:37 +0000
54.729879 -1.521658

Hi there. Since the easing of Covid restrictions and more people returning to work, the timings of the traffic lights on the northbound exit at J61 on the A1M need revisiting. Every morning at approximately 8:15am, there is a queue of traffic on the slip road, which cannot proceed on to the A177 due to the traffic at the lights leading on to the A177 having backed up. By the time the traffic coming over the flyover has cleared, the lights have turned to red again and the traffic from the A1M are unable to proceed. At most one or two cars can get over if they chance it. Please could this be looked at. Many thanks.

Road markings worn, 21st January

54.729776 -1.521013

There was a serious accident on the roundabout today. Last week we were involved in a road rage incident in the same area, other incidents reported on Facebook.I believe there is a problem in that Lane markings are worn and need repainting. In particular where a lane splits into two lanes, both north and south directions.

Diversion signage off (and back onto) the A1(M) is inadequate, 31st July

Sat, 31 Jul 2021 09:51:43 +0100
54.730113 -1.52031

The northbound diversion signage for the closure of the A1(M) in County Durham is inadequate and confusing. There are long sections where diversion signage is missing entirely, particularly through Durham City, where anyone unfamiliar with the area will become completely lost. I suggest that someone has a look at this.

Hi The grass cutting has exposed tons of litter round here. WHen you cut the grass, either do it just after you litter pick, or do it at the same time. Plus a load of it has now been shredded into thousands of tiny bits for you to pick up! Please arrange for a pick on the all the on and off slips that you can cut grass on here.
