TF0923 : Dubious sight lines

taken 8 years ago, near to Morton, Lincolnshire, England

Dubious sight lines
Dubious sight lines
It's hard to fathom, but the idea of building the new shop right up to the edge of the site, obscuring the view of traffic merging from the side road onto the A15, was actually a requirement by the planning authorities, to position the car park entrance away from the main road.

The net effect is to force merging traffic to stick their bonnet into the main road to get a view.
The A15

The A15 is the main north-south road in Lincolnshire, running the entire length of the county for almost 100 miles between Hessle, near Kingston upon Hull, and Peterborough via Lincoln, Sleaford and Bourne. It is also the road that crosses the Humber Bridge.
