Implement Speed Restrictions on Mierscourt Road

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to the vast amount of speeders on Mierscourt Road, there needs to be speed cameras or other speed restrictions put in place. People have been killed, cars smashed into, accidents, people nearly been run over. Just to name a few!

We are hoping to get the government on board to help implement speed cameras and / or speed restrictions on Mierscourt Road! People use this road as a race track. It is a 30mph road and there is a very little amount of people who actually stick to this limit.

There has been multiple car accidents, unfortunately people have been killed / severely injured, people run over, parked cars smashed into, plus all the near misses that have happened too.

Everyday is a worry on what will happen next.
