I have recently moved house and now use Idle Bank twice a day for my route to work. I am very concerned about the number of heavy goods vehicles that use this road. The road is barely wide enough for one vehicle in places and the Lorry drivers have little respect for oncoming vehicles. On many occasion I have been driven of the road onto the verge, which if you know the road, is very soft and narrow with very deep ditches. In the 3 months of using this route I have already seen several cars and one lorry in the ditch. Also , the road surface is very poor in places. I understand why it undulates with thew moving water table and peaty ground but the number of heavy vehicles using the route must be severely exasperating the problem. Many vehicles seem to use the road as a shortcut from the Westwoodiside road to the Sandtoft Industrial estates..
Has any else had similar experiences using this road or know why so many HGV's use it?

The lorries are mainly from the local sand quarry on cove road but there are others to
I live next to the road and some days it seems none stop traffic mainly lorries with little lapses at times of quiet but not a lot to shout about
The roads are terrible even the parts freshly done but I believe the council cannot do anything to stop them using the road as what alternative route is there .
