I live in the village and the speeds some drive through it at times are just crazy. The national speed limit signs encourage this, it needs to be ideally a 20mph zone or at worst 30mph through the entire village road net work

National speed limit is ridiculous in narrow village roads with no pavements, blind bends and horses !
The lanes are very narrow with storm ditches alongside, cars drive much too fast through the village and there is no where to go when such cars come round the corner too fast only to find pedestrians, bicycles or even horses in the way. It is an accident waiting to happen.
Speeding through Hankham’s narrow lanes makes walking, cycling and driving dangerous
We are seeing much more traffic going through the village now as the main roads get cloged up with road works and the sheer weight of addtional cars on the road network. the village is also well used by walkers, cyclist and horse riders. It has a 30mph through the main part of the village but not the roads leading into the village. these roads are NSL and need to be reduced
It is a narrow country road with horse riders, dog walkers, children and the elderly walking There is no pavement, bends, and very little verge. It is not safe for cars to travel at 60 miles an hour.
Dangerous as nowhere to walk with dogs and commercial\other vehicles going through very fast... A nasty accident waiting to happen...

People use it like a race track, and nothing will be done until there's an accident!
