Speed cameras for Warley Road, Halifax

Get speed cameras installed on Warley Road as there has been plenty of reports that justify the excessive speeds on this stretch of road.
There is speeding, dangerous driving and intimidation on the road.
Cameras would make money on this road as nobody observes the speed limit.

Why is this important?

There is a danger to life. It is not safe to cross as cars often drive round islands to get past.
Learner drivers are targeted and as there is a park entrance there are lots of young children about.
There have been many reports to Council and Police that justify extra measures but these are largely not producing a response.
Local residents have supplied video, photographic and first hand accounts of the driving that is illegal and highly dangerous.
There are 20 signs on this road but speeds are often in excess of 60 miles and hour.
There have been reports of eye witness and CCTV footage from businesses nearby that has shown near misses and the scale of the problem.

How it will be delivered

This petition will be circulated widely to online forums and local outlets and then presented via Councillors, local press, Police and Council for a response.
