Mini roundabout, Corner of Rectory Lane along The Grove to All Saints Church
Reported via mobile in the Road markings and lining category anonymously at 10:14, Saturday 3 October 2026
Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 19486.
Vehicles parked very close to roundabout as road bends round causing serious visibility problems as passing vehicles, heading towards How End, have to go onto the other side of the road without being able to see round the corner and cars coming into the village cannot see round the bend that there is a car on the wrong side of the road. This has been a particular problem for the past few months as more traffic has been going in and out of the village using the Grove since Bedford Road, Houghton Conquest closed earlier this year.

Thank you for contacting us with information relating to a Highways issue. We operate a holistic response to parking restriction requests, due to the need for a Traffic Regulation Order (which is a legal document) to implement new or revised restrictions. Please refer to the website and read our parking strategy before continuing further. Should you wish to proceed please demonstrate support from other residents and the ward councillor when requesting these restrictions by completing and submitting the application. Your application will then be reviewed, prioritised accordingly or included in a wider traffic management scheme for the area. http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/ transport/ request/ parking-restriction.aspx
