For a start a lot of the roads and particular where I drive in North Lancashire are appalling, its ok saying its the local authority, but shouldn,t a body like yours be telling them to get sorted out. The other infuriating thing on the main roads is the signs that are completely or partially covered in bushes or trees, very annoying when you are not from that area, guessing where you have to go. I recently went to Whitby, and the amount of signs covered was ridiculous. Should you not again as a highway authority be sending directives to all authorities and also your own responsibility roads to please keep the signs visible,. otherwise what is your purpose?
