With regards to the video that Mr. Baker sent last week, I am afraid the officer opinion provided is at variance with the one propounded by your group on YouTube. As the video clearly shows, the correct regulatory signs indicating that motor vehicles must turn left from Savile Row into Conduit Street are visible to vehicles as they approach the junction with Conduit Street . Your allegation (at 66 seconds in) is that we have not sited a sign at the “legally required minimum ‘clear visibility distance’”. You then quote from the Traffic Signs Manual as evidence, including parts of Chapter 3, section 1.1. Parts of that section are missed out, however, including the the sentence which indicates that the manual “cannot override” the actual regulations. The City Council determined that the non-regulatory guidance produced by the DfT for signing regulations was not appropriate in this instance due to the traffic conditions and physical constraints (ie the bend).
