Manor Road Speed Reduction Scheme The speed cushions are now in place. They are designed to encourage drivers to slow down in this residential area. They have been installed as a special scheme separate from the mainstream Warwickshire County Council (WCC) traffic management schemes although to exactly the same standards. The finance for the special scheme was made available from the North Warwickshire Area Committee following requests from local residents through Cllr Richard Grant. Some residents are unhappy with the speed cushions as they are not disruptive enough to drivers who insist on speeding along Manor Road. The width of the speed cushions are predicted by the width of the road at this location. There must be a channel at the sides of the road and in the middle to allow for cyclists (pedal & motor), and to allow rainwater to escape. Richard Grant asked for the dimensions of the cushions to be inspected following the installation of the original two or three. The report from this inspection was that all of the cushions are now wider than the original ones and given the width of the road the cushions are as wide as possible within the regulations. The shape of the cushions meet the required regulations. It is now important to allow a reasonable period of time to see the longer term effect of the cushions. The Police have been asked to monitor traffic speeds along Manor Road and where appropriate take action against the drivers. It is possible that some drivers may be ‘annoyed’ by the cushions and may demonstrate their feelings by speeding. They may also be trying to ‘upset’ residents who have made it clear that the speeding behaviour is unacceptable. Residents are therefore wise not to do anything which could agitate drivers at this time. |
