A55 Road Works
We the undersigned petition the controlling authority to reconsider the traffic control during the Essential replacement of lighting in the Penmaenback tunnels
As has been seen and experienced during the first 10 days of this work there has been no consideration to peak times and weekends from the Authority and this has increased the risk of Accidents on the Minor roads surrrounding Penmaenmawr and Conwy and also the accessiblity for Emergency services during these peak Periods
We ask for the lane restrictions ot be removed during the peak times of 07:30 - 09:30 and 16:00 and 18:00 and during weekends,
The 2 mile journey through these roadworks has been increased from 4 minutes up to 2 hours, this is already having an effect on local businesses and people needing to travel to there place of work.
And now it has been announced the works for removal of the 2 roundabouts on the A55
This traffic control issue needs to be resolved to avoid an increase in risks to accidents and motorists safety,
Also part of this petions request under the freedom of information act , COPIES OF THE RISK ASSESSMENTS Associated with the traffic control for the duration of this contract
Looking at the comments so far it is clear to see there have been Numerous NEAR MISSES during the past 10 days, and clearly these have not been taken into account during the planning of this Work
