Traffic Calming Measures for Drumcross Road / Glenmavis Drive Junction
We the residents of Glenmavis Drive and the surrounding area, supported by Councillor Cartmill, demand West Lothian Council urgently look into the dangerous junction between Glenmavis Drive and Drumcross Road before a fatality occurs.
Why is this important?
The issue is the speed of the cars travelling up the steep hill of Drumcross Road. Many people on Social Media have posted accounts of near misses as they exit Glenmavis Drive onto Drumcross Road.
There is a very faded 'SLOW' sign painted onto the hill but it is clearly being ignored by many drivers. Due to the speed of the cars the junction is blind. Exiting without an incident is more a matter of lucky timing than proficient driving.
A blind spot traffic mirror to extend the field of view for drivers exiting onto Drumcross Road from Glenmavis Drive would increase safety at this junction.
