Very poor signage and road markings, 23rd February

Fri, 23 Feb 2024 17:30:09 +0000
53.451587 -2.64007

I approached the junction where Bridge Street, Earle Street and Queen Street meet and as I drove from Earle Street across the junction I didn't notice that I should have given way because the road markings are almost non existent, also the give way sign is not illuminated, and it's more than 4 metres above the pavement. The regulations as I understand it is that the sign should be no higher than 4 metres. This is an accident waiting to happen.

Both North and South bound lane 1 and 2, both have many holes, indentations, pot holes - inline with previous road markings before road was widened. In several places between Ashton and Warrington, particularly difficult around haydock. We travel Mon, Tues, Thurs and Saturday each week on this route. It does look like some have been repaired but it is still deteriorating - I've particularly noticed this on the last two week.
