Woodland Rise /Woodland Rise West/Common Lane Safer Travel Project

Following concerns expressed to the district Councillors in the Autumn of 2020, Cllr Liz Withington liaised with the local Beat Manager PC Ian Smith who organised speed data collection (the black wires across the road on Woodland Rise )and also some speed controls in the area.

This project is about establishing:

  • What the concerns are.
  • Considering the options.
  • Looking at residents and road users views to identify a project, which alleviates residents’ concerns.
  • Any plan proposed, will need to be then considered for funding by Highways.

Following on from this data collection there are now to surveys to gather the views of both residents in the area and also road users. Sanders Coaches and the emergency services will also be contacted to gather their views on this stretch of road .

The residents survey link is being delivered shortly to all households in the area but a road users survey is available here to complete. Please do not complete the survey below if you are a resident on this route or directly off it.

Once we have received all the results and collated the views we can put together a plan for consideration and look for funding to support Highways to see what can be completed
