CONCERNED councillors are calling on highways bosses to take action to make flood-prone roads less dangerous this winter.
Fears have been raised over the safety of Sloe Hill, between Halstead and Gosfield, and Foxborough Hills in Sible Hedingham.
The unlit roads are both prone to flooding, which can lead to treacherous ice when it freezes. There are also blind bends and potholes.
Now councillors are appealing to Essex County Council to take action before anyone is hurt.
The call is being led by Hedingham councillor Jo Beavis and Halstead councillor Jackie Pell. Mrs Beavis has written to Essex County Council calling for road lighting, flood warning signs, suitable gritting during winter and a resolution to the flooding.
