The road outside Morrison’s distribution centre is constantly being used as a short racetrack for high powered motorbikes. I’ve spoken to a rider and he has said the roundabout is locally known as ‘drop-knee roundabout’ as it’s shape encourages high speed approach and cornering which they use to simulate racetrack situations. Is it possible to introduce any safety measures before someone gets seriously injured?
