Lack of signs
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4863204.
Dangerous corner where temporary lights are, no signs to slow down. I was sat in the corner and a van came round and had to swerve on to other side of road to avoid hitting me as I was stationary, he wasn't going fast just had no warning that there would be stationary traffic round the very tight bend. Luckily no cars on other side of road but large lorries drive on here all the time there's bound to be an accident and whilst I was sat there I was really scared for anything coming round the corner it was terrifying. Signs needed to instruct cars to slow or go 20mph, as when no cars in front of your braking how would you know!!!
