“I am not ranting just for me, but for everyone else as well.” What was your experience driving in the area?
Local resident Maria Docherty is already exasperated by the year-long roadworks which started on Skellingthorpe Road on Monday, as her usual six-minute journey took almost an hour.
The works began on Monday, August 7 and Maria, who travels to and from Skellingthorpe several times a day to tend to her horses, is already fed up by the situation. It took Maria 50 minutes to get from the railway crossing to the garage, and “two diversions to get up one road”. “The builders building the houses should make a two-lane temporary tarmac road through where they are putting the houses instead of inconveniencing people driving to work or going somewhere.“It is really frustrating as you can’t plan your days. You can’t go another way as that’s what other people are doing, so there’s more congestion.
"I’m having to walk past the stationary idling traffic with the fumes, but more importantly in about four to five weeks when the schools go back an awful lot of kids walk down here.” “We have a team on hand to immediately respond to any issues relating to disruptions caused by the works.”
