Road to nowhere
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7902555.
A part road exists off the A66 and runs into a wooded area. I hope I have the location right. I can't see it serves any purpose. It is very accessible and used by bikes and scooters who use Snipe Lane to access the road out to the A66 and across it. It is dangerous and blocking the road would prevent an accident happening. The young men who ride these bikes and scooters don't have number plates and ride at speed down Snipe Lane and into the wooded area and out along the part road onto the A66.
