Almond grove is an entry only street no exit the signs at entry point have been tampered with and the sign in the picture is constantly vandalised and turned around people dont take any notice of these rules . Its a serious traffic accident waiting to happen childeren play in the street all the time and the speed they exit is lethal. It needs traffic cameras at the entry to Almond Grove then you can see whats happening. Between that no entry sign and opening to Almond grove they should put single yellow lines to stop parking up people will see then its a no exit road and stop speeding out . A child wi get hurt or cars will collide. Please please can this be sorted out the council sent someone a few months back to repair sign its the same again they also put street marking on the road . Can you help ..This issue is ongoing as long as we have lived here over 40 years weve complained many times too council. The exact locacation from the red no entry sign is 1,2,4 Almond Grove Worsley Hall Wigan WN5 9PE to end of road which comes out on Ormskirk Rd Wigan shop to the right and residence to left .
