Misplaced speed limit sign

Reported via mobile in the Traffic Signs category anonymously at 14:36, Tue 5 March 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 7 minutes later

You’ve put a single 20 mph sign half way along a country lane. There are no signs placed at either end of the lane (the lane is entirely within Spelsbury village) and motorists will have already been exceeding the speed limit by the time they see the sign.

In addition, the sign is placed within the vehicle turning curve of our drive and we have to be careful not to hit it when leaving our house. It’s only a matter of time until someone hits it with their car.

The sign(s) need to be placed at either ends of the lane to be effective.

Please relocate.
