Drivers worry lack of road markings will result in 'someone being killed' at roundabout

Drivers have shared concerns about safety at the Deanery Road Roundabout in Warmley, with some even saying ‘someone will be killed’ on the roundabout if faded road markings are nor repainted. A number of drivers have reported the faded road markings to South Gloucestershire Council with claims they are not visible when driving.

Road markings are one of the easiest and quickest ways of providing drivers with the information they need to drive a specific patch of road safely. But when road markings aren’t clear enough, accidents are more likely to occur, and this is what driver fear may happen at the roundabout in Warmley.

Back in January, The Week In reported on the issue of the worn-out road markings and at the time South Gloucestershire Council said the work would be completed in the spring “when the weather improves”. However no work seems to have taken place at the roundabout.
