In Hardwick Bank Road Tewkesbury there is a Road Ahead Closed together with a Diversion sign and arrow this just past the junction with Northway Lane and the signage closes half the road. The actual road closed is Grange Road and the signage is causing considerable confusion at the junction. I was on a bus today on Northway lane and the bus wanted to go into Hardwick Bank Road. The driver assumed Hardwick Bank Bank Road was closed and went past the junction slightly until I told him it was Grange Road Closed not Hardwick Bank Road. he then could not reverse as vehicles had pulled in behind them. had to get off the bus and asked the vehicles to move around so he could reverse and get into Hardwick Bank Road. This is happening all the time. The problem is the signage is in Hardwick Bank Road and the diversion appears to refer to Grange Road. Can you fix this please I have considerable confusion at the junction.
