Our aim is simple - the introduction of a 20 mph Speed Limit and Traffic Calming along Cody Road in the village of Waterbeach, Cambridgeshire.
Why Cody Road
We have decided to start with Cody Road first as it is a long straight road which many drivers travel along at over 30 mph and there is already a 20 mph sign in the Armys Married Quaters Area of the road.
The number of vehicles travelling along Cody Road has increased substantially in recent years, especialy since the errection of a barrier on the corner of Kirby Road and Bannold Drove by the Parish Council.
So far, pets have been the only casualties on Cody Road. With at least one seriously injured and another recently killed!
The next casualty could be you or your child!
Our campain is for the installation of 20 mph sign when you enter Cody Road at the junction of Banold Road near the Doctors Surgery and for Traffic Calming mesures to be installed along the road.
So please sign our petition and join our campaign today!
The 20\'s Plenty campain is supported by:
Slower Speeds Initiative
Transport 2000
Living Streets
Safer Streets Coalition
The Waterbeach Residents Association
I just spent the morning watching traffic pulse down Cody Road and it really hits home every time a car clips that corner too fast. Some of you have been reaching out with your own stories about the near misses which honestly makes me feel less like I am shouting into the void even if the council is still acting like everything is perfectly fine. I am working on getting a formal request over to the people who can actually order the traffic calming measures so stay tuned for that.

I logged on this morning and just stared at the screen because I really did not think this would gain so much speed this quickly. It is honestly wild how many people are noticing the danger on Cody Road now that we have started talking about it out loud.

Too many people treat this road like a racetrack. My kids walk to school this way and I am terrified every single morning. Slow down!

Ridiculous speeds for a residential street. Lost my cat last year to a speeding driver. Enough is enough.

People speed down here constantly. Seen so many near misses its just a matter of time before someone gets hurt for real. Need speed bumps asap.
