Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4672531.

You had an accident about 4-5 weeks ago on the Orwell Bridge and lowered the already reduced speed limit (60) further to 40mph while on the bridge, this I presume was until you have repaired the two missing uprights on the Armco. Please advise when this issue will be resolved and the 40 mph returned to 60 mph as said previously the lower speed limit has been in place for 4-5 weeks now. Many thanks
