Ledbury Town Council have issued a statement after a lorry blocked a busy route in the town on Monday evening.
“Many of you would have seen the posts on The Voice of Ledbury on 31 October 2022, or indeed seen for yourselves, the Tesco lorry that got “stuck” in Homend.
“Ledbury Town Council are aware that vehicles that exceed the permitted weight limits regularly ignore road signs located on the outskirts of the town advising drivers not to enter the town centre and whilst this does not fall under the remit of the Town Council.
“We are currently working with the Police and Highways on ways improved signage could be provided so as to avoid such incidents as this happening in the future.
“We would ask that if you witness artic vehicles, or heavy tractors travelling through the town unnecessarily and you are able to get photographic evidence, that you share this with us so that we can work with local companies in making sure their drivers are aware of the rules and avoid the town centre wherever possible.”
