Next time the victim could be another innocent, possibly even a child.

Affects quality of life for residents on Roods and presents road safety issue for pedestrians. My understanding is local undertakers objected to speed calming measures when last discussed some years ago?

We suffer from speeding vehicles and all the concerns of the Roods residents. 20mph speed limits and police speed traps are needed for Kirrie.

Most nights I can hear cars racing from the bottom of the Roods to the top, with speed far in excess of 30mph. In the 6 years I have lived here I have never seen the police even monitor vehicle speeds. Only a matter of time before there is a speed related accident, hopefully not involving children

We have moved house because of this . . .

I think average speed cameras, placed at the bottom of Roods and the other past the school would be quite a good idea.

For the sake of the kids and for the sake of families out there who should not experience what I went through (And caused me to move away) there should be a reduction. Some people have no standards.

Getting support from people round about you as well also helps as well as the local community council and local councillors.

The speed of cars and the narrowness of the pavement is a combination that will surely result in a serious incident in the very near future. My dog was hit by a car as I walked with him down from the hill . thank goodness it was not a child that I was walking with.

The streets are very small and narrow. I would say 20MPH is my limit in town, anything higher and you are endangering not just yourself but others.

]]> Wed, 14 May 2008 03:43:34 UTC 3608554 Mr Eddie Anderson [Signature #23] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/3607948?utm_medium=rss My family and I walk down the roods quite often and I am constantly worried about the speed of traffic. The road is very narrow in parts and this brings the traffic very close to the pavement, It would only take a moments carelessness for a driver to mount the pavement or for a child to stumble and fall into the path of a speeding motorist. It is a constant worry for me with a yonug family. Would it not be possible for the twenty limit to be extended to include the entire roods.

]]> Wed, 14 May 2008 12:43:23 UTC 3607948 M.J. Cammack [Signature #22] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/3607907?utm_medium=rss I think its ridiculous how the 30mph signs are located at the edge of housing developments. Just one issue which could be looked at to make the country roads safer for people to walk cycle etc. in the adjacent countryside. If drivers were to keep to the 30mph speed till further from housing, they might not start to gain speed till they are actualy in the countryside.
On the flip side of the sign there is the national speed limit symbol, IE 70 mph, which is also ridiculous for country roads.

This whole area has a big problem with idiot drivers. You have our wholehearted support in your campaign to improve the situation in the Roods.

But the roads in Kirrie aren't made for the volume of traffic on the roads.

Both my daughters attended the Brownies/Guides and Northmuir Primary and I was constantly aware of the ridiculous speeds at which people drive on The Roods. My nephews and niece still live there and also have to run the gauntlet of walking down The Roods. I feel the situation is compounded by the very narrow pavements and parked cars and just hope that nobody gets killed.

I have only lived here for 1 month but have been appaled in that short time by the speed of some of the drivers who seem to race up and down the Roods ignoring the speed limit. I have two granddaughters who attend Dancing Classes in the guide hall and am very aware of the dangers they face. As adults we have a responsibility to keep try and keep our children as safe as possible. Please take action before it is too late!
