Save lives in East Street
Save lives in Thame by putting up better signage or/and speed bumps that would alert drivers coming from the High Street into East street, that they need to be aware that children and families are crossing the road.
Why is this important?
This is a major crossing point for children and families using both John Hampden School and Lord Williams's School. At the moment there is no direct line of sight from where cars approach the turning into the East Street and cars frequently do not stop at the junction and often do not even indicate They come round the corner at speed and there have been a number of near misses where cars have had to slam on breaks or children get pulled back by their parents. A block of flats was built on the corner which directly impacted on the sightline of drivers into East Street. We are urging Thame Town Council to help save lives by providing adequate warning signage at the very least.
