Whatever happened to dualling the A120 from Harwich to Colchester?
Have you travelled on this road lately when the ferry has docked and all its passengers and cargo are travelling on the A120?
What a nightmare: foreigners and foreign lorry drivers who have no idea of how to drive on the left, mixed with the pathetic drivers who constantly use the A120 from Harwich as a race track. Let’s also be clear that it is not only youngsters – many a time I have been cut up by a socalled businessman, a white van, or motorcyclists, constantly overtaking on bends where locals know this road has always been an accident black spot.
There have been deaths on this road, along with many accidents, so why are the public moaning about the stretch of road from Braintree to Marks Tey?
We have the very busy Harwich International Port, many haulage companies and an oil refinery which puts many tankers on this stretch of road.
I don’t like using the A120, let alone my wife using this road, especially with our kids in the car.
