My name is Caleb Beavan and I am 9 years old. Every day my mum drives me and my two sisters to school and we have to go around this roundabout. There is a lot of traffic and everyone just has to try to get around. We have seen quite a few cars bump each other or nearly miss bad accidents and this worries me.

I wrote to the Council and my MP The Rt Hon David Jones. David replied and said that if I made a petition and collected signatures he would send this to the council and support my request for traffic lights to be put up so that all the cars, and also children walking to Secondary and Primary schools would feel safer.

Please will you sign my online petition and support this.

I am tracking every near miss at the roundabout and keeping a record for the council. People keep telling me they feel unsafe walking to school.

Have always dreaded this roundabout as a driver at busy times, and for my daughter crossing the roads to get to school.

Well done Caleb, can't believe there hasn't been a petition about this roundabout and access to Ysgol Bryn Elian before now. I worry about my grandson having to cross this road from Old Colwyn.

This roundabout is awful. I have to cross 2 of the roads that feed into the roundabout every day I take my young children to school. It is extremely hazardous at 8-9am in the morning and the same in the afternoon around 3pm. I would welcome some sort of solution to this roundabout and not just from a pedestrian point of view. It’s also hazardous for vehicles. I have seen numerous smashes and hundreds of near misses occur on this roundabout. It really needs to be looked at as a matter of urgency before a child is knocked over.

Roundabout is chaos in the morning rush hour and I’m surprised more pedestrians, mainly children are not involved in RTC’s.

Well said, its a shame it takes a 9 year old to highlight this issue! Hoping the authorities take this on board.

It is totally needed as I drive it daily too and you take your life on your hands every time you drive there.

I agree that there should be some traffic control here. I constantly see children at risk crossing here.
