Roadworks sign obscuring junction visibility

Reported via mobile in the General road marking and stud issues category anonymously at 00:20, Saturday 3 August 2024 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6310162.

Exit from McDonalds/Tesco to Kingsmeadow roundabout. Very large roadworks sign which shows lane closure in yards ahead. Position of sign is too close to the edge of pavement area between lanes - makes visibility from Tesco exit onto roundabout very difficult to see cars coming from Swindon direction. Accident waiting to happen. Sign needs to be moved back (towards McDonalds) by about 50-100cm to help ensure safe visibility.
