There is a warning sign, but it is largely in the other direction. The source is Grist Environmental, who deal in waste. One place they put it appears to be on the road.

Devizes features [29]
A small industrial estate is located off Sleight Lane.
The market town of Devizes developed around its 11th century castle. It gained a charter in 1141 and holds a weekly market in the large and picturesque Market Place. In the 16th century the town became known for its textiles and in the early 18th century held the largest corn market in the West Country. Devizes has about 500 listed buildings - a very large number for a small town.

Once were trains [2]
A bridge once carried the Devizes branch railway over Sleight Lane at this point but there is no trace of the abutments left at all, merely the rise to the embankment on both sides of the road - this is the east side. Devizes was first reached by a branch line from Holt junction on the Wessex main line in 1857. The line became a through line in 1862 when the GWR Reading to Hungerford line was extended to Devizes via Pewsey. It returned to being a branch line in 1900 when the Stert to Westbury link was built. The line and all of its stations closed in 1966.
