20 is Plenty

I spent the end of last week and a fair amount of this week, talking to and collecting signatures for a petition from parents of children outside both of the Colmore Schools’. Both Steve McCabe and I wanted to know the views of the parents on the speed of vehicles using Tenbury Road, Grove Road and Colmore Road.
In the mornings it was very clear that Tenbury Road and Colmore Road was a rat run for motorists who didn’t like the traffic lights at the junction of Vicarage Road by the Red Lion, so speed outside the School main entrance. In addition a number of motorists who did drive down Grove Road, took little account of the young children on their way to school, hence our campaign of ’20 is Plenty’, where we will attempt to get a 20mph zone around school starting and finishing times introduced.
