Urgent Traffic Calming Needed on Marton Road (A423), Long Itchington
Residents of Long Itchington are increasingly concerned about dangerous speeding along Marton Road (A423). Following multiple accidents — including a recent high-speed crash that destroyed a street lighting column — many fear it is only a matter of time before someone is seriously injured or killed.
Why is this important?
As residents of Long Itchington, we see the speeding on Marton Road (A423) every day. Cars and vans regularly travel through the village at dangerous speeds, putting pedestrians, cyclists and families at risk. The recent crash that completely knocked down a street light was a stark reminder of how serious this problem has become. Many of us walk this road with children, dogs or pushchairs, and it is frightening to think that without action, the next incident could involve a person rather than a lamppost. We simply want our village road to be safe for everyone who lives here.
