Do you agree that the speed limit on Main Road in Goostrey should be reduced to keep our children safe? Introducing a 20mph speed limit would be a good start with speed bumps at the bend by the schools increasing safety even more. In addition, a 20mph speed limit would improve safety at the junction of Main Road and Hermitage Lane.This petition with sufficient support will be presented to the local Parish Council for review. Please voice your opinion.

I have been concerned for a long time about the speed of cars and tractors using main road Goostrey. I have seen tractors the height of houses going far to fast along main road, and as most of our pavements are very narrow I fear that someone could be dragged under the wheels while walking along the road. Especially young children who are walking to and from school. We holiday a lot on Anglesey and I find most drivers respect the 20 mile an hour speed limit going through the villages. At least then pedestrians are much safer to go about there business. This petition in my mind is a very important safety issue.
There are too many people speeding through our village. I’ve seen people do 41 mph at 8.40am when kids are walking to school. Speed bumps should absolutely be introduce to keep our children safe!
I witness cars regularly exceeding the speed limit past the school and have even seen a car mount the pavement, near to where children were walking. A lot of careless driving and speed bumps would make a huge difference.
Hi. I would also recommend adding a zebra crossing to enable the children to cross safely. Despite it being a school, cars still speed past the gates and I worry a child will be knocked down
Our roads are so dangerous in Goostrey with the pavements so close to the cars. One bad step and adults and children alike could be killed or injured - we’ve personally had many close calls. Do something before it is too late for someone.
I am in favour of a 20 mph speed limit and speed bumps on Main Road Goostrey
I want 20 mph on the main road through Goostrey together with speed bumps in appropriate places.

I think speed bumps or some sort of speed reduction method would be better than a reduction in the actual speed limit. There is already a speed limit - people just don’t stick to it!
