'It is without doubt the most scary and dangerous crossing I have ever used'
Drivers say a crossroads on the A46 is so dangerous it is only a matter of time before someone is killed. Most who took part in a survey conducted by a concerned local councillor admit they do not feel safe whenever they use the busy junction, between the villages of Seagrave and Thrussington.
He added: "It's been 15 months since modifications to these crossroads were completed to accommodate Leicester City FC and their new training facility in Seagrave. I've lived in Seagrave for 18 years and have always struggled to interpret how to cross. "With this in mind, I launched the survey in May with three simple questions regarding the crossroads. We have had an incredible response.
"At least twice I have had to break virtually to a standstill to avoid a collision. I literally have anxiety whenever I go through, when there are cars in the middle of the carriageway". "It is equally dangerous, if not more so for traffic crossing from Seagrave to Thrussington which requires crossing both carriageways without a safe view. The volume of traffic and speed of flow makes turning across or right to Leicester frightening.
