Ronnie said: “We are hoping to accomplish the implementation of road traffic calming measures along the A59 between the Mellor Brook roundabout and the A677 intersection. “This stretch of road has been notorious for major road incidents and in some cases fatal, for sometime now. This is despite BAE Systems moving the main entrance to site from the old layout.A representative for BAE Systems said: “We are aware of the petition launched with the aim of improving road safety near our site in Samlesbury.
