Major Nottingham junction 'horrible' for pedestrians to cross

A major junction has been described as "horrible" for pedestrians to cross and tricky for drivers to turn right, as residents living nearby have given mixed views on what should be done. The junction of the A60 Mansfield Road / A611 Thackeray's Lane / Ribblesdale Road can be busy through the day, and even more so at peak times.

It's within Daybrook Square, which is home to The Vale pub, and shops such as Sherwood Lighting and a Kwik Fit among others. The four way junction has traffic lights in each direction, and pedestrians can cross by going halfway across the road, and then waiting for the next set of lights to change.

But residents in the area raised a number of different concerns, with some saying they have trouble crossing it at times, and others saying they avoid turning right across the junction completely. One described it as "awful" to cross.
