Traffic blocking pedestrian crossing end Marsh Lane/Cherwell Dr
Reported in the Road Markings category anonymously at 11:41, Wed 12 February 2020
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 5 minutes later
Very dangerous to use the pedestrian crossing on Marsh Lane/Cherwell Drive junction FOR BLIND people as traffic blocked crossing, trying to pull forward when the lights change. My Dad is blind and uses the rotating cone underneath the press button so assumes it’s safe, and clear to cross. This is HIGHLY DANGEROUS and needs a KEEP CLEAR or YELLOW BOX adding PLEASE. I see you already have a complaint for the Cat Car Park! Blind people would end up end up walking into stationary traffic. High risk of an accident for ourselves and for other people.

Regulations do not permit the use of yellow box or “KEEP CLEAR” markings at the location within the crossinbg described since the existing road markings indicate the limits of the crossing which should be kept clear (see Highway Code rule 192) .
