I live just outside a beautiful village called Uffington in Shrewsbury. I believe it is perfect for my family, except for one thing. The road on which we live is a 60 mile per hour zone. Since moving here just over a year ago, we have had two cats run over and killed. Now I know alot of people will sympathise with this, but I also know some of you will think thats life. I have a two year old son who has started to explore his environment and I would hate the thought of what would happen, if he accidently bolted onto the road. Please help me to change the speed limit to 40 miles per hour. It would only be for a short time on the road as there is a junction just down the way. Please sign this petition to help keep our children safe.

So sorry about your cats. That is awful. People drive way too fast down that road, total disregard for anyone else living here. Sort it out!

Agreed. Way too fast. Traffic calming measures are long overdue here.

60mph is crazy for a residential area! my kids play outside all the time and this makes me nervous. fix it before someone gets hurt.
