Make clearer roundabout signs in braintree from mcdonalds to marks fam A120

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The roundabouts in braintree essex from galleywood corner to marks farm roundabout need clearer and safer road markings and signs. They cause confusion and are not clear enough especially if you are not local to the area.

We want the signs to be made clearer with more defined road markings.
Release the funds for essex council to provide funds for braintree district council to make the changes as mentioned above. More defined road markings and lanes painted on the roads to stop confusion, and drivers cutting up each other when they enter the roundabout as they don't know what lane to be in.
