‘Countdown single chevron sign has been knocked over, 20th January
Of the three countdown to exit signs on the Eastbound exit for Mere the final single chevron sign has evidently been knocked over and is no longer visible. This is a notoriously unsafe junction as drivers often misjudge their speed and the abrupt left turn catches some driver out.

Missing 3 chevron ‘count-down’ sign on A303, 11th March
Approaching the exit near Mere to join the B3092 travelling eastbound there is no “3” chevron countdown marker to indicate that you are approaching the exit. There is only a 2- chevron and then a 1 - chevron marker. This can lead to drivers not reducing their speed in good time to negotiate what is a sharp and sudden 90 degree exit. I have witnessed drivers braking hard and colliding with the exit island.
