Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on highway safety

What decided it

The proposed sign would create a significant distraction to drivers at a critical point in the highway layout (where Bourges Boulevard enters Queensgate Roundabout), increasing the risk of traffic accidents and thereby having an unacceptable impact on highway safety.
