Sat Navs taking drivers to a blocked/closed road, 18th July

Mon, 18 Jul 2022 14:54:57 +0100
53.619282 -1.346795

Yesterday I re-directed 8 drivers trying to get to Hemsworth Water Park. This is a regular occurence on my daily walk. They are being directed to the park through the farms but this route is closed with a barrier on the farm side of the railway bridge (see pic from Google Maps). Not sure who to report it to. Highways Agency re-directed here.If its not possible to update SatNavs via a central point could the council consider putting a sign up at the Station Road end of the Farm access road. It would save drivers on fuel etc and be better for the environment. Best wishes. paulcdunn@sky.com
