Thread above about coffin Dodgers self policing this kind thing.

End day though some council are just going silly now with weight limit signs. Access only etc..Some there’s absolutely need for..

If signs genuine due to tight bends narrow lanes old bridges infrastructure etc

But half I’d say are more a case of we don’t want trucks passing out mansions spoiling the view etc send them around the council estates o stead etc. or on a 20 mile divert using the ring road etc.

Which all adds to congestion on said routes and higher emissions

Bitham Park is perfectly usable for artics, but obviously there’s an housing estate there on the way to Lidl on the roundabout, The Mead is passable for larger vehicles but has speed bumps , that’s a link road to Westbury but once again there is a large housing estate whose residents said no lorries.
