Craney, who lives in Cannock, told the BBC: “As soon as I’ve seen a sign that says 14ft 3in, I’m like, ‘right, I’m all right on that road’.”But if you get to the bridge and it’s suddenly 13ft 9in, you aren’t going to make it. That’s the big issue.”If we hit any other bridge, it’s a fine from the police. If we hit a railway bridge, it’s an invitation to an interview with the traffic commissioner, and we do lose our licence for it.”Peter Mason, cabinet member for strategic highways at the council, said all signs associated with the bridge would be updated where necessary to reflect the correct maximum headroom of 13ft 9in (4.2m), with work part-funded by Network Rail.”We will also continue to monitor this location,” he said.
Action to be taken on confusing low bridge signs in Rugeley.
