White Lines

Having once again found myself mouthing "F*** me" and shifting the car to the left as I drive past the restaurant on Sandy Lane to avoid the oncoming vehicles in my lane I was prompted to give a call to the Worcestershire Hub.
First off don't do a search for Worcestershire Hub, this will take you to the useless whub.org.uk page. If you actually want to do something you need the worcestershire.gov.uk page.

Anyway the young lady was helpful as I explained that a white lane dividing line needed to repainted down this stretch of road; that it had worn away from the junction with Barracks Road up to the first corner i.e. exactly at the points you need a lane divider, and that due to its lack people were using the STW's refilled trench as the left-hand edge which put them about a foot to the right of where they should be.

I also mentioned I was pleased when they'd repainted the junction marking at Barracks Road, and it was a shame they hadn't continued. Being honest the young lady replied that they quote for a job and that's all they can do. That I already knew and once again demonstrates the benefits of 'efficiency' that someone can spot a problem, have the solution to hand, but can't do anything because it's outside their remit.

So we'll see what happens. If action is taken I think I'll mention the lack of lane division in York Street and see what gets shaken loose.
