We are petitioning to ask the Highways Department to review their decision to refuse us a crossing on all four roads at the cross-roads in Wragby. Our village is expanding and we need the infrastructure in place to maintain a high level of safety for all citizens. Due to the recent housing developments (some of which is social housing), we have seen a vast increase in the number of families moving to the area, thus increasing the number of children in the area. Our local school is almost at full capacity and has had to add an extra class to cope with demand. With more children than ever in Wragby, how long will it be before someone is injured on our roads Should we wait to find out or take action now Past studies have shown Wragby to be a place where people move to retire; we therefore have a large elderly population; for this reason, we are asking also to have dropped kerbs/pavements at the crossings. Please help us to get these crossings in place by signing our petition Thank you

I am currently compiling our findings to present to the Highways Department regarding the increase in pedestrian traffic near the new developments. Send an email to your local representative today to demand they address these safety risks before an injury occurs.

The momentum behind this petition proves that our village is united in demanding safer roads. Take this link and text it to three neighbors right now to show the Highways Department we refuse to back down.

Hard for me to get to the shops with my walker because of the high kerbs. Wragby needs these upgrades for the older folks too.
