Roundabout at the junction of the High street and Bedford road
Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 11087.
The dropped kerb for crossing the high street has no road works sign to indicate traffic is now coming from the left. A non driver would be unaware of the need to look left as road markings indicate traffic from the right. I absent mindedly crossed only to realise traffic was using the incorrect side of the road due to roadworks.
