Rejected petition Make significant improvements to the slip roads on the A34 in the Newbury area
The A34 slip roads, particularly at Highclere & Speen near Newbury, are incredibly dangerous due to their short length and dangerous angles, and given the volume of traffic & HGVs that use the road.
We would like significant improvements to be made in order to minimize accidents & improve safety.

The A34 slip roads, particularly at Highclere & Speen near Newbury, are incredibly dangerous due to their short length and dangerous angles, and given the volume of traffic & HGVs that use this road.
At peak times, the slip road at Highclere often has a queue of cars waiting to pull onto the carriageway that can't be seen as the corner approach is so sharp and the slip road is so short.
We would like significant improvements to be made in order to minimize accidents & improve safety.
