Residents of the area know that cars frequently speed down Bellfield Avenue, endangering residents and the students of Bellfield Primary School. Despite repeated requests to the council for road calming measures, they are unwilling to help unless a fatal incident occurs. This petition is designed to pressure the council into addressing the issue.

The volume of support for the Bellfield Avenue safety measures has reached a level that the local council can no longer ignore. I have formally requested a meeting with the transportation director for the end of the month to present our demands for traffic calming.

my husband was nearly killed coming home from work 6 years ago by a speeding car
After the extremely dangerous crash the other day it has come to our attention that something needs to be done on this street.
Even with the new crossing you can wait for 5 or more minutes to cross the road.
About time restrictions are put in place before it's a child that's hit by speeding motorists
This stretch of Bellfield avenue desperately need traffic calming measures. There have been several car crashes near the junction of Holm Garth drive. So far, there have been no pedestrian casualties, but as its a road that has to be crossed by lots of pupils of the local school it's a risk that can be removed .
Needs sorting should have been done years ago
Speed bumps needed down bellfield avenue,too many accidents. Alot of speeding.

Despite this being a residential area with families with young children and the layout of the road/s meaning there are parked cars and blind corners, people don't take care on the roads and speed unnecessarily which is incredibly dangerous.
