Reducing the Speed Limit of the A334 (Meon Valley)
According to local Community Speedwatch schemes 30% of vehicles traveling throughout the village’s of Meon Valley (Hampshire) break the speed limit. There have been a number of reported incidents and according to local residents it's unsafe for children trying to cross the A334 to get on their school bus. There are many blind spots when trying to cross the road and there is no obvious safe crossing point. Incidents could be reduced and the local community made safer if the speed limit was reduced, speed signage made more visible, and traffic calming measures put in place.
This petition is to ask Hampshire County Council to reduce the speed limit on the A334 Wickham Road/Kitnocks Hill/Chapel Lane/Station Hill from 50MPH to 40MPH to prevent accidents on this fast stretch of road. Make speed signs clearly visible, introduce traffic calming measures, and safe school bus crossings.
