Traffic lights on Saffron Road

Reported via mobile in the Road markings and lining category anonymously at 05:02, Tuesday 7 January 2025

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 416593.

The road markings are virtually invisible and on two different occasions, while I was correctly stopped at the red light and even though I had my left turn signal on, oblivious drivers queued up on my left (on the cycle lane) to turn left too. Of course this is due to human stupidity too since there are signs indicating where cycles and motor vehicles should wait, but hopefully would also help if the floor markings were visible.

  • Thank you for submitting your Highways report.
    We already have maintenance work planned in for this area and the issue will be resolved as part of this work. We are, unfortunately, unable to provide you with a timescale for this to be completed, however, all repairs are prioritised using an assessment matrix in line with our Network Maintenance Management Plan (NMMP).

    We will continue to monitor all defects to ensure the safety of our residents as part of the NMMP which can be found online - http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/ transport/ roads-strategies/ highways-asset-management.aspx
