Our thanks to QLocal contributor Lol Critchley from Rufford who passes through the new look Switch Island every weekday - and says all is not well after the major roadworks there...
He reported his concerns to Highways England and QLocal has taken the liberty of posting his email for which he is awaiting a reply:
'From: Lol Critchley Date: 13 December 2018 at 14:37:32 GMT To:info@highwaysengland.co.uk Subject:Street lights A59 Switch Island Aintree Liverpool and overhead signage
Hello
Lawrence Critchley here, Liverpool Road, Rufford, Lancashire L40 1SD
I travel to work and use the A59 approach to Switch Island, Aintree and travel through this on the A59 to my workplace.
There is a major problem with some of the street lighting on the approach to switch island on the A59 when approaching if from the Maghull direction over the flyover.
I have in the past reported the problem giving lamp numbers, it is fixed but after a few days they are off again.
The lamps and more off at present are Kla31 - 2kk14 - 2kk15 - 2kk8 - 2kk1c - 2kk1b - 2kk4 - 2kk5 - 2kk8.
I would suggest it would be better if you could send an Inspector out when it is dark to do an audit of all the lamps on this section over the M58 flyover and onto and around Switch Island as it is difficult for me to write street lamp numbers down whilst driving.
Finally,there is overhead signage at the end of the M58 that has lamps on but has never been working . This overhead signage is also visible from the traffic lights just after the A59 flyover over Switch Island . This signage needs to be working as along with the longstanding lighting problem it presents a hazard.
