Church lane j/w A422 Maids Moreton

Reported via mobile in the Road sign without a light category by Conrad Lee at 20:03, Sat 5 October 2024

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6555917.

At church Lane junction with A422, there is a temporary route diversion sign on the buckingham side of the junction that restricts views of traffic turning right, to gain full safe view a vehicle has to push forward into or over the junction mouth compromising safety to gain clear views before deciding to pull out. Vehicles coming from the right (Buckingham) at speed are unseen to facilitate a clear decision to pull put. A motorcycle holding a nearside position towards this junction would be completely hidden by the signage board until the last moment with potentially serious collision. Repositioning the sign further back from the junction would open views for clear and safe decisions to be made to exit the junction.
