Frustration as lorries get stuck down lane again

Lorry drivers have been urged to "use common sense" and stop using a narrow Cornish lane after another vehicle got stuck there.

Mark Nicholls installed signs earlier this year after becoming fed up of lorries using satellite navigation driving down Coosebean Lane, Truro, and causing damage to trees and a stone wall when the vehicles become stuck.

However, Mr Nicholls – who lives on the road – said drivers had ignored the signs and kept using the lane, including a 18-tonne lorry that got stuck on Tuesday.

A spokesperson for Cornwall Council said it had been reviewing the existing signage and would shortly install new signs to "reinforce the message".
