Incorrect signs to A4280, 10th August

Wed, 10 Aug 2022 10:43:43 +0100
52.14745 -0.395488

The road signs for exit from A421 Eastbound and Westbound incorrectly indicate a route via A428 to Bedford, whereas this road has been re-numbered A4280 for many years. The incorrect designation (A428) is continued on signage and road markings along the A4280 with the exception of local (black and white) signs which correctly designate the road as A4280. This issue has been present since at least 2015, and probably much longer since the construction of the A421 Great Barford bypass.

Lighting on sliproads, 11th January

Tue, 11 Jan 2022 13:21:50 +0000
52.151396 -0.386746

This slip road has constantly no working lighting coming up to the roundabout. This is dangerous when coming off the A421 now it is dark earlier and in the rush hour if vehicles are queued back from the top of the roundabout or if a vehicle has broken down in one lane. I am not sure if this is a fault with the lights or whether it is the intention for them not be lit up but all seem to not be working. The slip road on the other side also has a line of street lights out so all needs checking.
