A need to consider the general road user and to not deposit detritus as per the Highways Act 1980:
“The road known as Huish Road off the B3153. In particular and all the lanes around Somerton in general. It appear that either a single land owner or perhaps several Are using very, very large tractors with rear drive wheels that are larger in height than a 35cwt Van. They have consistently and persistently ignored the fact that large amounts of mud are deposited on the highway after working in over saturated fields. It is impossible to walk or drive around the lanes of Somerton without seeing damage to verges, mud on roads all of which are then transported onto the main highway. The latest incident at hush Road is a typical example of blatant disregard to other road users. The issue needs to be addressed”
