Tail-back.
7th July
Due to the presence of traffic lights exiting at jct 9,( due to jct 10 being closed on Friday pm), there was a traffic queue caused by said traffic lights. Looking at it from a drivers point of view, it is these very lights that cause all the tail-backs in general every day, in this part of the motor way proper. Heading north in the morning, the opposite carrigeway traffic is slow moving or at a standstill. Heading south in the afternoon the above case is generally the same. If you want stationary vehicles, there should be parking spaces instead of road space which does't work.

Poor markings/signage could lead to an accident.
12th June
The poor quality of the markings on the road and inadequate signage is resulting in numerous people being in the wrong lanes as they approach the junction on the A461, and them cutting across lanes and through moving traffic to correct themselves.

Dangerous parking and reduced space for residents.
12th June
Local businesses are leaving their cars parked in neighbouring residential streets during the day (and sometimes overnight), resulting in reduced space for residents to park cars safely by their homes. Some of the vehicles left (which include large vans) are parked on blind corners on junctions, resulting in diminished visibility for oncoming vehicles.

Large deep pothole on the off side edge of the middle lane. Heading south approx 400 yards before jnc 9 overhead gantry. It appeared to be approximately 1 foot wide and very deep.
