There have been lots of problems over the years due to the proximity of the A38 to the end of Filton's runway. There used to be a special set of traffic lights to stop the traffic when the Concordes were operating from there.
The last incident I recall was some poor unsuspecting cyclist who was knocked off his bicycle by the jet wash fron a departing Antonov a couple of years ago.
