The bottom end of littleworth road as you come off of the mini roundabout is dangerous. For a long time Cala have had the large metal fencing up initially with their signage. I've previously asked for them to take this down as when coming down littleworth road you approach a bend with a traffic calming measure at the start of the bend ( this is totally in the wrong place ) because of the signage you couldn't see clearly.Thankfully they took the signage down but now the house has had a 6 foot fence put up and once again this is blocking the view of the bend. This is dangerous.What makes it worse is the position of the traffic calming measure.Talking of the traffic calming measures, these aren't needed due to the amount of cars parking on the road and pavements!!! you attempt to drive along littleworth, drive past parked vehicles see a gap to go into as you have an oncoming car and the gap you think is a gap is the traffic calming & you can't go into it. The traffic calming measures need to be taken out.The cars along littleworth need to stop parking on the pavement & homeowners need to use their own driveways. The top of littleworth near sunnyside is a nightmare, you drive out of sunnyside to drive down littleworth & end up having to reverse back because of the cars coming up at the pinch point. This section of littleworth is also dangerous. Despite driving carefully i've lost count how many times i've nearly been taken out.The change of layout at the top of littleworth / Sunnyside, watlington road is very dangerous. Can anything be done about this please?
