AS a motorist who over the years has experienced numerous near misses when negotiating the dangerous crossing from Bleak Hill Road on to Rainford Road I would welcome an answer from a legal representative acting on behalf of the highways department to answer the following question.


Due to the fact that highways have been fully aware of this junction for the past “X” number of years, and have chosen in their wisdom to do nothing to improve the situation, would they be accountable if a serious accident occurs?
