20's Plenty for Edgcott

Comments

#1

Speeding traffic is a danger to Edgcott residents and others who travel through the village.

Edgcott is used as a cut through for many local villages and as such speeding is an issue. Raising awareness by reducing the speed limit to 20mph would have a good impact for those of us who live here.

Fed up of the high speed that most traffic, including very large lorries, pass through our village.

(Edgcott, 2020-10-16)

I live on a straight bit of road in Edgcott. Too many cars, motor cycles and lorries drive at speeds in excess of 30 mph, even overtaking within the existing 30 mph limit. It is irresponsible and dangerous and while I am not hopeful that asking drivers to drop their speed limits will work without enforcement action, any initiative which highlights the problem is to be welcomed.

I a resident and the road is lethal!

(Edgcott, 2020-10-19)

#10

I’m signing because I live on this road on a dangerous corner. People come round this corner at speed and we have had 5 accidents on the corner in our time here. It will probably take a fatality before something serious is done. Everyone needs to slow down

I'm signing because speeding through the village of Edgcott is getting worse as each week passes. School children are at risk crossing the roads to get to their school bus stops. Elderly residents are scared to cross the roads, and beloved family pets have been killed by speeding vehicles. Traffic volumes have increased due to HS2, EWR and their supporting vehicles ... we have to slow things down to make the village safe for all residents and for it to remain a lovely place to live.

The increase in traffic and speed is crazy. My daughter walks to the bus stop for school and because there are not paths all the way through she had to cross the road twice on her way to the bus stop and three times on the way home - it’s dangerous.

(AYLESBURY, 2020-10-21)

#23

The increase in traffic and speed on Perry Hill and through the village is becoming a danger to residents.

(Wokigham, 2020-11-17)

#24

We live in Edgcott and it is like a race track. No-one shows any consideration for those living in the village. There WILL be a nasty accident if nothing is done.

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#27

There are lots of bends on the main road through Edgcott. Trying to access or leave residences or joining from sideroads is nerve racking. I am always terrified whenever we visit our son in Perry Hill.

(Wokingham, 2020-11-17)

#28

Because I regularly visit

(Southampton, 2020-11-17)

#29

I am a resident who lives in this beautiful village & speeding is not tolerated

(Buckinghamshire, 2020-11-17)

#32

Speeding kills!

(Waterlooville, 2020-11-17)

#36

I am worried sick that the increased volume, speed and vehicle size of traffic in Edgcott and surrounding villages due to construction work is going to result in death or serious injury.

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#39

Traffic is far to fast and made impossibly worse by hs2

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#41

The traffic affecting Edgcott speeds through my village (Twyford) every day. I am also getting fed up with picking up all sorts of rubbish from HS2 vehicles (and yes I have seen the workers throw coffee cups, drinks cans, sweet wrappers and PPE from their vehicles before anyone asks).

(Twyford, 2020-11-17)

#42

Our little villages can’t take the speeds being traveled by trucks and cars. The roads are a mess and our children are at risk

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#45

Because I have witnessed near misses with both cars and cyclists. It is an accident waiting to happen, we need to stop it before it does.

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#47

People drive through the village I live in far too fast.

(Edgcott, 2020-11-17)

#48

People take the bend too fast end up off the road and in my driveway

(Edgcott, 2020-11-17)

#50

Lorrys are far to fast. Seen lots of near misses

(Grendon underwood, 2020-11-17)

#51

The cars and lorries go to fast they think it’s a race to get to the other end, and not good when trying to get of your driveway with blind bends

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#54

This village has very twisting road and many residential buildings with families and pets. The heavy traffic, of which there is a lot travels through at more than the 30mph speed and that is too fast for such a small village that is subject to such a weight of large vehicles

(Edgcott, 2020-11-17)

#55

I am scared driving or cycling through Edgcott because of all the lorry drivers who are speeding through it and are driving very very dangerously

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#58

Our small rural villages seem tk ave been forgotten while the Lords decided on these big project's

(Charndon Bicester Oxon, 2020-11-17)

#61

I’m local to the area and hope my village adopts the same approach.

(Buckingham, 2020-11-17)

#64

It makes perfect sense to keep everyone safe.

(Letchworth Garden City, 2020-11-17)

#66

in the last 12 months I have had a van crash into my fence, and had to recover a vehicle off the width restriction bollard, both accidents caused by speeding. The road is a danger, and unless something is done it won't be long before someone is seriously hurt.

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-17)

#72

I’m signing because 20 is plenty in Edgcott!

(Buckingham, 2020-11-17)

#73

I live in the village and the volume of traffic and speed is frightening

(Edgcott, 2020-11-17)

#76

vehicles continue to speed through the village with little regard to pedestrians and other sensible road users

(Edgcott, 2020-11-17)

#78

It’s frightening walk along the pavement through Edgcott with the massive increase in heavy goods vehicle traffic for HS2, EWR and housing construction in Steeple Claydon.

(Grendon Underwood, 2020-11-17)

#83

Speeds above 20 are dangerous in a village like Edgcott.

(Buckingham, 2020-11-18)

#84

The increase in traffic flow has become dangerous on this country road.

(Calvert Green, 2020-11-18)

#85

I would like to prevent the boy racers of this world using the road through the village as a challenging part of a racetrack

(Edgcott, 2020-11-18)

#88

I m signing this petition because as a resident, I am concerned for the safety of our children and grandchildren, due to the ever increasing number of vehicles exceeding the 30mph speed limit showing a total disregard for both the law and the safety of the village residents.
We have already had a number of accidents in the village, due to speeding motorists and with the oncoming winter, HS2 lorries and icy conditions, it is a recipe for disaster. Act now and instigate a 20’s Plenty traffic safety initiative to save lives!!

(Edgcott, 2020-11-18)

#90

I’m signing because it’s better to take action before someone is hurt or killed on the roads in our village.

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-18)

#97

I’m signing because I used to live in Edgcott and the speed that vehicles, particularly lorries, go through the village is dangerous and intimidating to the residents.

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-19)

#98

I have had lorry’s speeding past me whilst out for a run. Not only are they breaking the speed limit of 30 they are driving very dangerously

(Grendon Underwood, Aylesbury, 2020-11-19)

#100

Traffic comes through the village at way beyond 30 and sometimes ends up in my garden

(Edgcott, 2020-11-20)

#104

Too many cars and lorries speed through our village.

(Edgcott, 2020-11-20)

#106

Too many pets and children are at risk

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-20)

#107

Live right by church in Grendon Underwood. Large Lorries coming through at speed on the Broadway cause house to vibrate.

(Grendon Underwood, 2020-11-20)

#108

I live in Edgcott village and see the shear amount of speeding vehicles every single day, mainly larger trucks and lorries.

(Edgcott, 2020-11-20)

#109

I live on the road leading into Edgcott and traffic speeds are way to high

(Aylesbury, 2020-11-21)

#113

We have all had enough of lorries speeding through our villages

(Bicester, 2020-11-25)

#120

Edgecott does not support the infrastructure to accommodate many large vehicles at speed.
Even cars have to slow down considerable to negotiate the number of bends in the road.

(Bicester, 2020-11-26)

#124

Speeding traffic is a danger and should be stopped.

(Harrogate, 2020-11-28)

#126

I used to live in Edgcott and I fully support the 20mph speed limit.

(Harrogate, 2020-11-29)

#127

We have witness many accidents and had to watch our children cross the road everyday with traffic racing past them at ridiculous speeds, while they wait precariously at the bus stop.

(Aylesbury, 2020-12-11)

#128

We need the slowing of vehicles through our village. It is extremely dangerous and unpleasant to walk through and poses a pollution risk with the heavy freight travelling at speed.

(Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, 2021-01-03)

#129

I want Edgcott to be under the 20's Plenty for Edgcott. I think it is a great idea. It is dangerous walking around the village with traffic so close and fast. Pedestrians and cyclists have no protection against the speed of traffic. There are times when you worry about your arm being damaged by wing mirrors when you so close to speeding traffic.
