Inadequately signed roadworks and temporary traffic lights, 30th January

Tue, 30 Jan 2024 18:58:46 +0000
54.001731 -1.669414

Travelling in the past hour in both directions I have come through roadworks at this point which reduce the road to a single carriageway with temporary traffic lights. However the lights and the works are in a dip/on a bend and the only signage is at the stop points so queues of traffic are hidden until drivers come round the bend from the west or over the hill from the east. This is a road where drivers expect to be able to drive up to 60mph so stopping distances are potentially dangerously short and it looks like an accident waiting to happen, especially in the dark. There seemed to be some signs laid down on the verges which if on view would solve the problem. Needs sorting urgently I would say

Dangerous subsidence of road, 12th November

Sat, 12 Nov 2022 12:25:27 +0000
54.017732 -1.677095

On Menwith Hill Road as you drive from the junction at the top of Stumps Lane going towards Sleights Lane the road is increasingly subsiding towards the top of the farm. This is increasing and the camber sharply pulls the vehicle out of control towards the farm. This is particularly dangerous if you give way to wide farming vehicle coming from the opposite direction.
