52.226072 -0.843099

I have reported this matter several times in the past only to be told that the state of the white lining was being monitored This is an extremely high risk junction and the road markings for the right turn safety box from the Bedford Road into The High Street are now virtually obliterated. This morning I narrowly avoided a head on collision with an oncoming car whose driver had no idea that it was travelling in the the right turn box! These lines must be replaced urgently to avoid possible serious accident

Yet another pot in this stretch of road. I've seen swiss cheese with less holes in than this stretch of road. 37 separate pot hole repairs in 50m of road, surely it would ne easier to replace the whole thing.
