For those of us who live around the Bowling Green Road area, we have known for years that vehicles exceed the 30 mph limit on that road. But instead of getting on with the job of providing additional speed enforcement, the administration at West Berkshire Council have delayed taking action and gone for another vehicle speed survey instead!
I have provided the council with photographs of crashed cars taken from the garden centre roundabout to the pedestrian refuge outside the Regency Park Hotel. I am proactive whilst the council is reactive!
Let us hope that it does not take a death on these roads to get the council motivated to take action.
Not so much a pedestrian refuge, more a vehicle pinch point. This is where vehicles brake hard when they find they are going too fast to negotiate the narrow road and slight bend.
