ONCE again the York council transport department shows how not to ease the problems on the A1237 with more roundabout ‘improvements.’

Just recently I have driven along this road only to find the Hopgrove roundabout at a standstill after such improvements.

They seem to be unable to comprehend that unless the A64 is made a dual carriageway from the Hopgrove to the existing section of dual carriageway and also the A1237, the problems will remain.

Two lanes into one equals traffic problems.

There was talk of a flyover at the Hopgrove roundabout but again this would only work if the rest of the A64 was up graded.
