Please sign this petition to show your support for a pedestrian crossing on Wighay Road before there is an accident. It's a very fast road so we also need your support to have a speed reduction from 40mph to 30mph. Thanks.

For a road with so much traffic and schools nearby, the speed limit should be 30mph. This road is getting much busier with more properties being built. As a local resident I know only too well how difficult this road is to cross as a pedestrian which is very dangerous.

I cross with a 6 and 9 year old to atrend holy cross school and it's lethal. I also run a business from home (dog grooming) and know that I have lost customers due to the speed of traffic and the danger it puts people and animals in. We have also lost our cat on this road Someone is going to get killed.

This road should have been 30mph even before the new houses were built. Both connecting Roads are 30mph but Wighay has always been 40 mph drivers tend to use Linby level crossing as a launch pad to go as fast as they can.

Road is even more busy since the new housing estate under Gedling council. Can take up to 10 mins in a morning to eventually make it off my drive and the speed at which people drive is definitely not 40. Maybe speed cameras are required as well.

This road is a nightmare to cross espicially with young children trying to get to Linby school, and has been made much worse due to the extra traffic due to the new housing estate build on the opposite side of the road. I request that a pedestrian crossing needs placing and also a speed restriction from the roundabout located near the National Academy, all the way to Linby to help reduce the risk of incidents which are apparel.

Our road needs to speed down to 30 mph, and have speed humps installed. If its good enough for Bestwood village its good enough for Wighay Road.

Drivers who use this road drive far too quickly. With the increase of property being constructed this will inevitably lead to a fatal incident if something isn't done.
