Large amount of lights out south of J27 both sides, 1st January

Mon, 01 Jan 2024 20:44:38 +0000
53.581795 -2.69399

Large amount of street lights not working on both north and south bound sides, south of the M6 junction 27, starts around the brown tourist signage (north side). Please see dash cam screenshots. This has been like this for a while. This stretch often has a lot of standing water after heavy rain and working lights would be an improvement. Thank you.

Road markings non existant, 9th December

Sat, 09 Dec 2023 12:43:09 +0000
53.589455 -2.694705

The road markings on the J27 roundabout are missing/very faded. I’ve just been inches away from an accident due to a road user not being in the correct lane - he clearly didn’t know he was in the wrong due to the unpleasant gestures he was making and shouting I was in the wrong lane. I’ve used the roundabout as a local resident for over 30 years so know which lane I should be in but due to the volume of traffic, this is too dangerous not to attend to immediately.
