The A684 along the route between Wensley and Worton has had Matrix Boards installed to warn drivers of the areas that are closed due to Flooding they are large and extremely visible and were obviously expensive to install, unfortunately there are some drivers who either ignore the signs or believe that their vehicle is amphibious resulting in the emergency services being called out to assist. And wasting their time.
