Petition: Stop Dangerous Speeding on England Way - protect our kids and pets
England Way is a residential road, yet vehicles are regularly driven at excessive and unsafe speeds. This creates a serious risk to pedestrians, children, residents, pets and other road users.
Residents should not have to feel unsafe walking along their own street, crossing the road, using driveways or allowing children to play nearby. The current situation is particularly concerning because it is only a matter of time before someone is seriously injured or killed.
We are calling for:
● An urgent traffic and speed survey on England Way.
● Consideration of a 10pm speed limit if appropriate.
● Installation of speed humps, speed cushions or other traffic-calming
● Improved warning and speed-reduction signage.
● Regular monitoring of the road to ensure the problem is properly addressed.
Why is this important?
This danger has already had a devastating impact on our community. One of our cats was run over and killed on England Way. Losing a much-loved pet in this way was heartbreaking, and it has made us even more concerned that a speeding vehicle could seriously injure or kill a child, pedestrian, cyclist or another animal.
No resident should feel unsafe walking along their own street, crossing the road, using a driveway or allowing children to play nearby. Families, older people, cyclists and pet owners should be able to use England Way without fear. The current situation is unacceptable, and waiting until someone is seriously injured or killed is not an option.
We believe action must be taken before another tragedy occurs, not after a child, pedestrian, cyclist, resident or animal is seriously injured or killed.

Please sign this petition and support our community’s request to make England Way safer for everyone, including pedestrians, children, cyclists and animals.
Enough is enough — England Way is a residential road, not a racetrack.
