Make Fox Hill Road safer

To consider how they can reduce speeds on this road.

Why is this important?

Our darling cat Lola was ran over on Friday 4th May. She is currently in the pet hospital and has had to have her jaw rewired, lost a tooth and has to be fed through a tube in her nose. Lola will make a full recovery but imagine if this was one of my two children. Lola was lucky but if the car that hit her had hit one of my children then they would be fighting for their lives in hospital. Yes this road is a busy road and one that people pass through a lot. There are just not enough speed restrictions in place. There is ONE speed bump as you get to the brow of the hill and then its free reign and people gather so much speed especially coming from Grenoside. It is 30 MPH. People do up to 50 MPH. My children play on this road and so do a lot of children. My car insurance is high because of my post code. My car wing mirror has been smashed numerous times and over the weekend a car has ploughed into parked cars. I want Sheffield City Council to consider putting speed bumps on this road and to raise awareness to drivers that this is a place where we live and not a rally road and just remember the key message "it's 30 Miles Per Hour for a reason".
