Call for action after survey shows that over 50% of vehicles are speeding in Willaston

 

Willaston and Rope Ward Councillor Brian Silvester is calling for action to stop speeding down Park Road, Willaston in his Ward.

He said, “Over 50% of vehicles  are speeding and this is simply unacceptable.(See attached) Park Road is one the main routes into Willaston. The road is winding and narrow and in parts there is not a footpath for pedestrians. I am pressing for more road signs, more road markings and speed indicator signs to emphasise the need to motorists to slow down before someone is killed. I appeal to motorists to be responsible when they are driving down Rope Lane and keep their speed within the 30mph speed limit. I am also calling on the Police to set up speed traps so that speeding drivers are fined and others are deterred. I recently spoke to the Chief Constable on a Radio Stoke phone in to ask for the Police to take more action.”
