Unmanned road closures, 20th March

50.853885 0.08275

All access roads to and from the A27 are blocked and several unmanned. For residents this is utter pain as the roads are closing far too early (9pm) many local farmers are still working late and need to get access to fields and farms which have been blocked off. Please leave enough space for us to drive round with tractor and trailer. We will respect the staff and drive slowly if you leave access to our farms.

Heading west, the 50mph limit increases to 60mph and there are temporary 'national speed limit' signs on frames either side of the road, but eastbound there is nothing to show the start of the 50mph limit. The first indication is a smaller 'repeater' sign some distance to the east. I noted this two weeks ago (Sunday 12th June) and it is the same today.
