Bright TV's distracting traffic both directions

Reported via desktop in the Electronic Sign (NH) category anonymously at 08:56, Fri 3 November 2023

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5169206.

TN36 4AD A259 - Previous issues have been reported regarding speed and a hazardous bend by Winchelsea Lodge's general manager. They have installed two large, bright televisions on poles, displaying advertisements for food and showcasing moving images of their staff. This distraction impacts traffic in both directions on the A259, particularly at a critical bend. Notably, this is the same location where dummy speed cameras were placed two years ago. The owner resides in Spain and should be informed about the risks this poses to drivers navigating a known dangerous stretch.
