I AM concerned about the constant gridlock when the mid-week Murton auction market is held.
Perhaps the Murton site has outgrown itself and needs to be relocated to one of the old airfields.
Last Wednesday the Grimston roundabout was completely gridlocked as were all roads leading up to it, with about two miles of standing traffic on the A1079. Even the A64 had standing traffic on both east and westbound carriagways which is very dangerous on any road let alone a very busy dual carriagway.
It is time the authorities looked at this problem before an accident prompts them into action.
