FIXMYSTREET IN TA8 1HW
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of TA8 1HW:
Vehicles turning left from Worston Road onto Bristol Road/A38 - this isn’t allowed, 17th April
I quite often see vehicles turning left from Worston Road onto Bristol Road/A38, and this isn't allowed because of the angle of the road and the pavement. If vehicles do turn left, they're driving straight into the path of oncoming traffic and there is a bridge nearby so visibility of oncoming traffic will be obscured. It's clearly signposted that turning left isn't allowed. Also, I sometimes see vehicles turning right from Bristol Road/A38 onto Worston Road. Again, this isn't allowed and it's clearly signposted that right turns aren't allowed. This increases the risk of accidents and it also puts pedestrians at risk when crossing the road if vehicles are making illegal turns. This isn't an isolated incident and I've spotted this unacceptable behaviour on numerous occasions, so something needs to be done about it.

Large Pothole on Private Rd, 2nd April
Hello, This pothole has been sitting here for over a year (& longer as you can see the pothole becoming larger on Google Maps when searching previous years!) I understand this is a private road, however I believe this has been reported to the council before & to the owners of Southwell Court Apartments (as in the Maintenance company etc) & neither could decide on who's problem it was. Could something please be done about this or us pointed in the right direction?
