Improvements to A40 Raglan Bypass Inter-Section

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

We the undersigned are concerned at the dangers posed to pedestrians, cars, buses, lorries and cyclists on this heavily-trafficked stretch of the A40, and we call for the following changes to the A40 by Raglan:
Proper signposts by the pedestrian crossings to the Castle, to make drivers aware of this crossing
Ÿ A new roundabout where the Old Monmouth Road and Groesonen Road reach the A40, since this junction is dangerous and currently unfit for purpose; it is unsuitable for use by HGVs; and serious accidents happen here.
Ÿ A 50mph speed limit from the Raglan roundabout to the A40/A449.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Major roads in Wales are the responsibility of the Welsh Government. That means that the UK Government and Parliament can't look into this.
