Road too narrow to allow HGV to get across, 19th October
This is the 4th HGV that has struggled to manoeuvre from mill lane into Marshalls cross road. One HGV last week mounted the curb and then almost hit the post on the opposite side of the road. The lorry in the picture had to make several manoeuvres back and forward to get round narrow road. If a child is stood behind the vehicle the driver doesn't see them they could be hit. I have never seen anything so ridiculous with this new roundabout. Twice I have almost been hit by cars that think they can go straight ahead from Marshalls cross road towards clock face road from the right hand lane which is meant for vehicles turning right. I have seen an accident already in this road.

Someone is going to get killed here, 19th July
Turning right onto the St Helens link way from Elton Head Road towards the M62. The lights change leaving vehicle's stuck in the middle of the road. There are 3 lanes approaching the junction so cars travelling faster move to the outside lane, unable to see any cars that were to turn right in the middle of the carriageway. There should be more of a delay on the lights to give sufficient time to join the main carriageway.

Speeding down this quiet road, 7th September
There have been numerous occasions where cars go speeding down this road. Due to the park being on this road there are many young children crossing the road from the park going to longton lane newsagents. Warburton hey is used by lots of children on the way to school as a cut through the park. I live on Warburton hey & hear these drivers at all hours speeding, if a child stepped from behind a parked car they wouldn’t have a chance. I don’t want a child to be hurt or worse before something is done. We need some form of speed bumps to force them to reduce speed before it’s too late.

Parking on yellow lines near junction, 28th July
Yet another car is continually parking on double yellow lines right near the end of Ellerslie Avenue where it joins Rainhill Road. Car is a white VW ML14 AOF, causing problems also when turning left into the avenue especially if another car is coming out. It is yet another major collision waiting to happen - there is plenty parking further up the road, in the designated parking spaces or on the 'Black Horse car park - major issues also when other cars double park.
