P-05-701 Road Safety Improvements Along the A487 Trunk Road between Cardigan and Aberystwyth, to Include Passing Places

Text of the Petition
Following
numerous incidents along the A487 Trunk Road particularly between
Cardigan and Aberystwyth, I petition the Welsh Assembly to make
improvements along this coastal road, including passing places at
various locations, in order to alleviate the build up of traffic
behind slower moving vehicles. I'm of the opinion that having
strategically located passing places would reduce driver
frustration and risk taking when attempting to overtake.
When this Fishguard to Holyhead Trunk road is closed due to an incident, the alternative diversion route is along minor roads which can be a nightmare especially when Heavy Goods Vehicles, buses and coaches meet each other in opposite directions.
