Eastb. A259/Longridge Ave

We the undersigned petition Brighton & Hove Council to establish the left eastbound lane at the junction Saltdean, A259/Longridge Avenue as left turn only (Except Buses).

This is an accident waiting to happen. Currently there are two lanes allowing straight-on traffic with the left lane also allowing left turn left into Longridge Avenue. The problem is caused by two lanes within 3 seconds of the the junction having to merge into a single lane. This creates an immediate danger of undertaking traffic (left lane) and potential collisions. By confining straight-on traffic to the right hand lane at the junction (Traffic lights) this imminent danger could be eliminated.
This would follow the example at the next junction A259/Telscombe Cliffs Way and A259/Sutton Ave (Roundabout). Please refer to Streetlife.com where the proposal has been heavily discussed and well supported.

This ePetition ran from 05/06/2015 to 26/06/2015 and has now finished.

79 people signed this ePetition.

Council response

Will be presented to the Environment, Transport & Sustainability Committee on 7 July 2015
