Review the roadworks on the A338 Blackwater Junction in Bournemouth.

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

The roadworks on the A338, Blackwater Junction, Bournemouth, are causing mayhem for commuters and businesses alike. There is a knock-on effect to businessss who are losing income. Alternate routes are overly congested as they are not designed for the level of traffic seen. They need to be reviewed.
