Something must be done. Personally I would re mark the road back to one lane on and off, and impose a 50mph speed limit along the entire length of the A249. Before the crossing single lanes didn't cause hold ups, only the bridge going up.

You obviously never tried to get onto the island at rush hour before the new crossing. The old single lane bridge caused massive hold ups even if it didn't go up. I also sat in the queue last night for an hour, I don't wish to do that every night. Remember a lot more houses have been built since the new bridge, a single lane would be inadequate.

There is nothing wrong with the new bridge, I have used it almost daily since it went up and its design has not caused me to crash into anybody. It is simply the drivers who use it.
