| 451 | Andrew Burton | Putting speed cameras & trafic lights on the A1079 is making the situation worse, more hold ups & more potential accidents. The whole length of the road from York to Hull needs upgrading with villages bypassed, and the whole road dualled |

| 454 | R Albericci | need traffic lights or roundabout to get out of the village on to the 1079 |
| 455 | Colin Smith | |
| 456 | John Elston | This section of road is long overdue an upgrade.
There are so few passing places that it leads to impatient drivers taking risks. |

| 459 | Audrey Davidson | I cannot understand why everything has got to take so long. If everybody went up just one gear it would be amazing what could be achieved |

| 462 | J M Boyd | As well as an upgrade for the road I think a direct rail line to York would be of great benefit. I use the train to York as the road is so dangerous. |

| 470 | Dorothy Basher (Mrs) | A1079 is a well used and busy road, desperately in need of an upgrade. How many more people have to be injured or killed before something is done?
The sooner the improvements start the better. db |
| 471 | Geoffrey Stark | A single carriageway layout is totally inadequate for the volume of traffic using the road, both in terms of safety and efficiency. The approaches to the road from either end are also problematic, but I am unable to suggest what could be done in this direction. |

| 474 | Eileen Stout | If this road was in the South East it would not be tolerated !!!!! |
| 475 | Malcolm Stout | I feel that the A1079 needs upgrading for safety reasons. |

| 477 | Dennis Hewitt | Perhaps a re-think should take place on reopening the rail link between Beverley and York and the money spent upgrading the A1079 which will benefit more people. |
| 478 | h.w.smith | excellent campaign |
| 479 | Martin Limon | The re-opening of the Hull to York Railway line via Market Weighton and Pocklington is also needed. |
| 480 | Mrs M Ryan | i support this iniative and the proposed rail link between Beverley and York
It is interesting that in France, where EU money is given for road upgrading (which seems to be everywhere!) notices to show amount etc are posted
on the new roads |
| 481 | Anonymous | The road is dangerous and needs to be upgraded. Well done Graham for starting this petition. |

| 486 | Simon Cherry | I live on this road and we have had several accidents in or near the village. A friend was Hit hard from behind by a 40 ton lorry. |
| 487 | Revd. Michael and Mrs Maureen Bowman | We support the campaign to upgrade the A1079 as it is a very busy road which requires to be dual carriageway to make it safer. Some drivers can get very frustrated if they are stuck in a queue of slow moving traffic and that is when accidents happen. |
| 488 | maria Lakin | This road is desperate for improvement especially due the large volume of lorries which causes drivers to take risks to get past them |
| 489 | Peter Maskell | The single carriageway sections on the A1079 are extremely dangerous, hence the high number of fatalities in recent years and I wholeheartedly support any plans for improvement / upgrade |
| 490 | A.C.Barnsley | The A1079 is perhaps the most dangerous road that i know of. |
| 491 | Susan Hyde | A short-term improvement would be to install street lighting. Ideally, in addition, re-open the railway between Beverley and York. |
| 492 | Tony Atkin | Fully support the petition |

| 494 | P. & A Newall | THESE ROAD WORKS NEED IMMEDIATE ATTENTION |
| 495 | Christopher Thomas Carey | |
| 496 | robert burrell | |
| 497 | Susan Yates | We travel and have travelled this road a great deal over the past years. There are some very dangerous drivers using it, far in excess of the speed limit. |
| 498 | C & S V Achmed | Very dangerous road. Use at weekends |
| 499 | David Dimishky | This road is an absolute nightmare and is in desperate need of an upgrade you only need one slow moving tractor and within minutes every thing builds up leading to frustration and hence people take risks at trying to over take long lines of traffic which lead to head on collisions. |
| 500 | Fay and Michael Boyle | Having been nearly sent to meet our maker by an overtaking driver on the A1079 we heartily endorse any reasonable steps to upgrade/improve this road. |
