Faded road markings, M5 jct7 slip lanes

Reported via desktop in the Road markings (NH) category by David Hunter-Miller at 12:48, Wed 8 March 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4292255.

There used to be white road markings to indicate the pedestrian crossing points on all four slip lanes at the M5 jct7 island. These roads marking are now faded/non-existent and should be re-laid. The markings provide a useful cue to motorists that pedestrians regularly cross at these points.

  • I use junction 7 daily both in a car and a hgv. On exiting the motorway southbound and vehicles are starting to queue to go right at the roundabout impatient drivers undertake up the inside and then cut across to go right. I have seen many near misses here. With the recent roadworks about to finish and white lining to be done a sensible thing to do would be to put a left turn arrow in the lane for Pershore traffic . Any vehicles using that lane to turn right can then be prosecuted and would reduce the risk of a collision.
