Mini Roundabout at junction of Lancaster Way with Pegasus Drive
Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 432949.
The road markings that define the mini roundabout are extremely worn to the point that they cannot be seen properly; therefore, anyone approaching the roundabout in any direction - especially those unfamiliar with the junction, can miss that it even exists. Furthermore, there is no blue circular signage at the Lidl entrance to inform drivers that the mini roundabout is there, so cars entering the mini roundabout from Lidl car park often treat the junction as a right turn and completely cut across the centre of the worn roundabout markings, which risks accidents. It is unclear exactly how long the mini roundabout markings have been in this state, but judging by how worn they are, it has likely been deteriorating for some time.
