    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Poor street lighting failing to provide adequate visibility for drivers

    Wider context from the report

    “2. My concern is that in the last five years there have been six incidents including this fatality on this stretch of road and within half a mile approaching the roundabout. Evidence at the inquest emerged indicating there are no pedestrian crossings on this stretch of the High Street and visibility to drivers is obscured due to vehicles parked on either side. 3. In addition, there are no central road markings with poor street lighting resulting in the building line creating shadows on the footpath, which all add to the lack of visibility for drivers. ”
