Background

There's been so many accidents at Queens Head Junction, myself included due to people's speed coming out of Junction and the turning across 60mph road. There's been fatalities there, road is cambered and greasy surface. Its renowned for its dangers. Speed should be reduced to 40mph or have average speed cameras to regulate people's speed and ensuring safety for the road users.
