2018 definitely didn’t start as we had planned. On the 4th January a car crashed into our family home whilst my family were inside - in the same room the car crashed into. There was a lot of structural damage including a gas leak. The upheaval and stress this has caused our family has been horrendous. 3 young children made to leave their home their ‘safe place’ having to leave our family pets and area. Made to live in a guesthouse for 5 weeks in one bedroom, then moved to an apartment. Our lives have literally been turned upside down. We are still out of our home and won’t be in for some time. We desperately need signatures to prove to the DOE / DRB that safety measures need to be taken to prevent this kind of accident happening again or even worse someone being killed. We need a ramp , posts , signposts like others areas have.
I am truly overwhelmed by the kindness people have shown for our situation. Seeing so many people recognize the danger here is the only reason this has moved forward at all. Thank you for ensuring our neighborhood is finally being looked at.

Driving down this road is a nightmare with how fast people go. My kids play near there could happen to anyone. Putting up some posts is the least they can do.

The roads in our estate our often used as a through road from the Lisburn road to Malone, many times lorries and speeding vehicles have nearly cleaned us out. One such incident involved a lorry nearly rolling over the top of the car while it was reversing the driver oblivious to us being in the car. Incidents like this are common place and our friends experience is shared. We need to raise awareness and also prevent non residents from using the estate as a short cut, someone will eventually be injured or worse killed.
