New roundabout hump has forced traffic to go wide. Nobody at all parks 30 yards away on the bridge, literally within minutes of the paint being laid, the loading bay and yellow lines were full of coop shoppers. I see many near misses and roundabout blocked, as was ehre, as people pull out blindly into incoming traffic (and kids on bikes) and other just simply stop in the middle of the road, forcing cars behind to stop on the roundabout. Its gone from a hazard to hugely dangeous since recent roundabout and marking changes.

Nobody enforces parking, so nobody takes notice of either the new loading bay or double yellow lines, both are full of shoppers all day every day. I live opposite and hear emergency braking at least 4 times a day as people pull out blind. There are always parking bays on the bridge, literally across the roundabout from the shop.

I have seen one door ripped off and one minor bump due to this since reporting. Only a matter of time until a child is hurt.
