Description

Escob Bridge is a bridge located on the B5070 to the west of St. Martin's, connecting the village to the adjoining A5. The bridge allows provision for single-lane traffic at any time. As such, measures have been retrospectively added over to improve safety, including a priority system, verge marker posts etc. Despite such measures, the local community has requested the investigation into the feasibility of installing permanent signals to improve safety at this point.
