Unsafe / daily near misses

Reported via mobile in the Road surface (NH) category anonymously at 22:48, Thu 14 March 2024

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5715537.

Everyday I witness a near miss on the roundabout for M180 / M18 junction due to this roundabout being split into 3 lanes. Frequently cars / lorries cut across lanes causing near misses. This roundabout is totally unsuitable and unsafe in its current format.

  • Thank you for your report of 14 March 2024 to report your concerns about the roundabout at junction 5 of the M18. We understand your concerns and appreciate the time you’ve taken to contact us about this.

    We can advise that the roundabout is built to current standards and is signed and lined correctly. However, we’re aware some drivers may find the layout challenging. We’ve recently completed a study and are looking to potentially make some changes to the layout during our next roads investment period (RIS3 2025-2030). RIS3 is aimed at improving safety as well as increasing capacity and minimising congestion. The Strategic Road Network’s performance is continuously monitored from a safety and congestion perspective. We utilise the RIS periods to forward plan any changes which may need to be made as part of our strategy to continuously maintain and improve network performance.

    Thank you again for contacting us. If there is anything we can help you with, please email or telephone our Contact Centre. They’re available 24 hours a day by phone: 0300 123 5000 or by email info@nationalhighways.co.uk. Alternatively, please visit the National Highways website at nationalhighways.co.uk.

    Kind regards, National Highways
