I had the misfortune of having to use the A338 spur road this Monday morning.

Along with hundreds of other drivers it took over an hour to reach the Cooper Dean junction from the Ringwood roundabout.

On driving through the roadworks at Blackwater junction it was obvious that no one was on site at 9.20.

Returning through the roadworks 25 minutes later one vehicle was parked in the works area with doors open, still no sign of human activity!

We, the council tax payers are footing the bill for this total and utter incompetence all of the time.
