Confusing change to road markings.

Reported via mobile in the Road markings (NH) category anonymously at 08:14, Thu 26 August 2021

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 2959522.

Recently the road has been relaid and new markings have been put down and they are different to what they were before, as I have been driving that way to work for 15 years and I believe them to potentially cause an accident. When leaving the m6 northbound J3 there are 3 lanes. The left lane used to be for taking the first left towards Bedworth and the A444 (1 lane of it) but now the road markings take it into 2 lanes of the A444. Now if you are in the second lane exiting the M6 and follow the new road markings it takes you to the merging lane of the A444 which before it took you into the second lane of the A444. It caught me off guard with the changes as I didn’t see a sign saying change of layout, it doesn’t make sense to have one lane turning into two lanes to go the same direction. If you could look into this please I would be grateful. Thank you
