This is a dangerous blind junction on a bus route, vehicles are always parked on the corners and opposite the junction reducing visibility to dangerous levels. Evenings and weekends are a death trap trying to turn out of Ellen close. Highway Code (Rule 243) provides a general guideline for parking, stating you MUST NOT stop or park opposite or within 10 metres (32 feet) of a junction, the double yellow lines at this junction are not even half the recommended length and should be extended as a matter of urgency
