ESCC Highways/B2096 Safety Issues

Dallington Parish Council recently had a meeting with ESCC Highways about the safety issues on the B2096, particularly the Carricks Hill/Earlsdown area and the exit from Bakers Lane.
ESCC Highways reply was disappointing – many suggestions (double white lines on Carricks Hill are out of the question), but there is no firm commitment or dates for improvements.
DPC will continue to campaign vigorously for these improvements
