TAKE CARE CROSSING BRIGG CAR PARK APPROACH ROAD


Pedestrians need to take care when crossing Old Courts Road, Brigg - the main entry/exit for the town's main car park, particularly  at this point near the Boyes store.
The speed retarder hump in the road is used by many people on foot. But although it may appear to be some sort of official  or semi-official crossing point, it is not. 
Cars have the right of way, though some pedestrians for whom drivers fail to stop carry facial expressions suggesting  they think otherwise!
Thankfully, due to the road layout, vehicles are not travelling at great speed along Old Courts Road.

Nobody has a 'right of way', Nige.
The Highway Code talks about 'priority', but indicates each of us is responsible for the safety of self and others.....
