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.

52.132832 -0.378326

The mini roundabout at this location is not ideal. Sight lines are obscured by undergrowth and it is not uncommon for three vehicles to arrive at the same time causing confusion over priority. However the white paint marking the circle has worn away and needs repainting.

50 sign lent up on the floor, 12th February

Fri, 12 Feb 2021 18:59:13 +0000
52.129811 -0.392471

The speed has always been 50 but in the opposite direct the sign says 30. It appears they are in the process of changing the 50 to a 30 sign however there are speed cameras around and I’m unsure of what speed they are picking up. It’s very misleading, the 50 should have been taken away not placed in drivers view. This is down Bedford road willington a603
