SatNav bringing increasing volumes of traffic along road from Webland to Moreleigh, 2nd June

Wed, 02 Jun 2021 18:48:25 +0100
50.36737 -3.741383

SatNav systems are causing increasing volumes of traffic between Marley Head and the Webland roundabout and Moreleigh. This is largely a single track road with passing places and is unsuited for high volumes of traffic (particularly larger delivery vehicles and tourist traffic unused to using narrow lanes). As a result the road frequently becomes blocked, with small convoys of cars preventing oncoming vehicles from leaving passing places in either direction. The alternative route from the A38 (A384/A381) is barely any longer or slower and has the benefit of being two lanes along its entire length (apart from the light-controlled Riverford Bridge)

Vast hole in public highway, 7th May

Thu, 07 May 2015 21:07:07 +0100
50.351671 -3.762353

This pothole has been here for over a year. Devon County Council and local farmer have formed a team to fix the road. Many promises have been made. However nothing effective is being done. Today, Thurs 7th May, a huge chunk of tarmac about a foot square has now fallen from the middle of the road into the pothole, which is now over 20cms deep at the edge alone. I suspect it is a matter of days before I and the other 9 residents in this street, or our visitors, postal workers, emergency services etc. will not be able to drive safely to and from our homes. We have all paid our taxes: please, Devon County Council, can you DO SOMETHING?? I shall give my contact details so that you can call me directly.

50.3527162459129 -3.761948204132

Well over a year now, local farmers and council in dispute- no feedback to other residents in area only hearsay. Dates for repairs supposedly made and variously missed. Bad weather seems to have halted any progress however the road state continues to deteriorate. Truely HUGE potholes - getting more and more difficult to avoid as get bigger and bigger. Huge rocks strewn across the road and mud piling up in centre of road where large lorries and tractors pass down the roads, splashing up water onto the Devon hedge bank and eroding the sides down into the road. Holes water mid rocks everywhere. So very dangerous and filthy for normal vehicles, and tractors or farm vehikces too- to pass along. Have complained on DCC website - NO reply other than a polite "We have received your email and it will be dealt with shortly" comment. Feeling fed up and ignored- hello Council????! Ps can only pick one category below: however need to click Mud on Road/ Slippery surfaces ;debris in Road, multiple potholes, single potholes all various sizes and depths and street cleaning and trip hazards, oh and flooding....mMore a question of what category not to include.... Come on DCC......I have already written my car off in this lane due to floods and potholes- how much ore damage do we have to tolerate before something will be done??

Potholes and edges of road broken and missing, 8th December

Mon, 08 Dec 2014 13:00:34 +0000
50.3532888378633 -3.76262989157101

The lane from Preston Fork to Capton and onwards towards Woodleigh is in a dreadful condition. There are potholes and the edges of the roadway are missing due to the heavy and continual farm traffic. Highways have known about this problem for a long time (Years) and still nothing has been done. It will not be long before somebody has wheels go down a pothole and suffers serious damage to their vehicle because the potholes fill up with water and become invisible. This problem needs to be properly fixed and it is URGENT !! Please note that the residents of Capton need notice before work commences because the lane from Capton to Preston Cross is our only means of access.

The verges are very overgrown and it is becoming dangerous for vehicles turning left into the A381 from the Blackawton side of Short Lane as they are unable to see traffic coming from Totnes/Dartmouth side of the A381. We have witnessed several near misses over the past few weeks.
