Taylor Avenue is a quiet residential road used daily by families, children travelling to school and older residents. Residents have become increasingly concerned about road safety due to: -Increased incidents of road accidents including two overturned cars. -Vehicles travelling at excessive or inappropriate speeds for a residential street. -Increased use of the road by drivers seeking to avoid congestion on surrounding routes. - Limited visibility where vehicles are parked along the road. - Safety concerns for cyclists and other vulnerable road users. - Frequent reports of near misses and dangerous driving behaviour.
