Stop congesting narrow lanes

-

Again, today I was travelling down Chegworth Road, and this is a frequent occurrence, where there were several cars in front of me who all had to back up, along the very narrow lane in order to allow a very large lorry indeed to come forward.

I had to do an eight point turn to free up some space in order for this vehicle to get through. Everyone in Kingswood has had enough of these large vehicles taking over the use of the narrow roads/lanes in this neighbourh­ood.

The large vehicles treat it as a through road as not very many use it for access alone.

I know that there is Leeds village, where the access is a proper road and is useable for the approach to and from Leeds is wider than Chegworth Road.

This is a problem throughout the year which is escalating and it needs for there to be some sort of metal height barrier restrictio­n thus preventing the use of Chegworth Road being used as a through road by HGVs.
