The junction is poorly designed and dangerous, my sons girlfriend has damaged her offside rear wheel and this is the second time I have seen this in 8 days with another car broken down opposite the house. The cones which have been put do not give adequate clearance.

I have also witnessed damage to vehicles hitting the unlit junction islands. I’m waiting for a huge accident to happen here. I have also seen vehicles travelling head on towards each other due to being confused where to go when negotiating this poorly designed junction!

The part of the road on the curve is now collapsing and is some distance from being level, cars will catch their bumpers if not corrected. Please can you advise who will pay the £78 for the repair to the wheel damage? Thank you
