'It is a horrible junction, and I use that junction every morning when I go to work and it's just really quite dangerous turning right across'
Residents have shared their concerns over a junction on the A52 Bingham Bypass. According to crash map data, dozens of incidents have taken place on the bypass at the junction with Tithby Road, Bingham.
Retired David Hobson, 72, explained incidents happen there "on a regular basis really, I don't think motorists understand the junction itself." He said: "They are not sure whether to give way to this road or from the A52 so we get a car stopping here and over there and they don't know where to go."Mr Hobson explained that the road has recently had work done to it and has been painted, but he is unsure how much of an impact this will have.
A 48-year-old manufacturer who did not wish to be named said: "It is a horrible junction, and I use that junction every morning when I go to work and it's just really quite dangerous turning right across. You just feel like a sitting duck in the middle of the road." "It's almost like they have painted a central reservation so it's safe for people to overtake, but I don't know if that will encourage people." Another resident, 45-year-old Lisa Wharmby, said: "We've not had any accidents or anything there but I know a lot of people struggle in which way to give way to, so I think it does need sorting out."
