WHILST I often agree with Susie Dean's comments, I cannot agree with her with regard to Lindsay Road and the roadworks about to commence causing confusion for visitors (Echo letters, Mon July 23).
Lindsay Road is not the main road between Bournemouth and Poole as that is Poole Road/Bournemouth Road where visitors’ satnavs should be directing them.
Unfortunately due to poor signage at the County Gates gyratory, Lindsay Road often appears to be the main road for traffic coming off the roundabout. In consequence a lot of visitors to the area find themselves driving down Lindsay Road by mistake, realising this when they reach the bend leading to Leicester Road. Every day I see such drivers looking puzzled or turning around.
For many years Lindsay Road has been a rat run for locals but with the poor signage at County Gates it is now as busy as the main road.
