Road Safety Action - Burton’s Road and Surrounding Roads

Statement

We, the undersigned, petition the Council to take action to improve road safety on Burton’s Road, Albert Road, Links View, Seymour Road and Sherwood Road.

Details

Our roads are used as a cut through by people trying to avoid traffic at the Hampton Hill junction and on park road, leading to a significantly higher volume of traffic on our roads than they were designed for. This leads to road rage, aggressive driving, damage to parked cars, and makes it unsafe for children, families and older adults trying to cross Burtons road to get to school, the train station and around the community. We need a solution that reduces the number of vehicles, reduces aggressive driving behaviour and improves safety for people walking and cycling. With more and more accidents happening this needs to be prioritised.
