Invisible island

Reported via mobile in the Faded / Hard to see (NH) category anonymously at 21:29, Tue 15 October 2024

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6619867.

Travelling South from Evesham, one of the island is invisible at night. Light has been broken and reflective sign is missing and leads to a risk of impact

Travelling north is ok - that reflective sign is still there

  • Thank you for making your report. We have asked our inspection team to attend this location and assess the issue.

    If any work is needed, they will arrange for this to happen. Should no immediate work be required we will continue to monitor this during our regular inspections.

  • Sadly there's no change in the situation. This island is still invisible when travelling south at night. The reflective keep left sign is still missing, as is the light that used to illuminate the island

  • Again, no progress on this problem. I guess if they leave it long enough the days will get longer and the problem will go away until next winter.

    The in isible island is a serious hazard at night going south on the A46.

  • So the light has been replaced...but isn't working! A keep left sign has been attached to the lamp. That helps. Still no low level, reflective sign when travelling south.

  • As per the last update. Light still not working. No reflective coating on the bollard at low level but at least there is a high level keep left sign now.
