I've just looked this specific location up on Google Maps.

That is a horrible, borderline negligent example of road design. Dreadful.

A wide flaring bellmouth junction, with angles that visually encourage drivers to speed around the corner, and which give pedestrians increased distance to cross.

Direct next to that is what I presume is the "suggested" or implied crossing point for people getting to the bus stop. No traffic lights, no pelican crossing, nothing.

Just a small break in the steel fencing (which itself implies this is a dangerous, non-pedestrian friendly road), for pedestrians to attempt to cross between. This is really bad.

If you live locally I'd strongly encourage you to report this to your councillor, because this isn't really good enough in 2022.
