QUESTION NO. 12

QUESTION: Councillor W. Carey

To ask the Chief Executive, to install additional traffic calming at Foresthills approx 100yds from entrance to Football grounds and prior to bend. Unfortunately, traffic speeds out from the grounds and further from estate towards bend. local residents are extremely concerned here.

REPLY:

A related item was raised under Item 81435 in December 2023.  In  that answer, I said the item would be examined and brought back to a TMM.  Part of this proposal is to install a stop line at the end of the access road from the football grounds.  This proposal will be brought back to TMM in March.  This measure will slow drivers coming from the football ground.  

After this stop line is installed, we will do further traffic speed surveys to see if a speeding problem still exists at this location.  If it does we will take further appropriate actions.
