New signs welcomed
Upper Bann Ulster Unionist Assembly Member George Savage said: “This road has been an accident blackspot for quite some time with cars leaving the road, and potentially breaking through the fence or hedge and ending up in a field.
"This is obviously seriously precarious for the driver in terms of the potential for serious injury but also a hefty insurance claim. It also poses a serious concern to local farmers who may have animals in the fields adjacent to the road.
