Community Speed watch

COMMUNITY SPEED WATCH

Community Speed Watch is a Community Forum driven initiative that enables communities to be involved in reducing harm and fear arising from inappropriate traffic speed on local roads within 30 or 40 MPH speed restriction zones with the support of Warwickshire Police.

Trained community volunteers monitor vehicle speeds with approved devices at risk assessed sites identified as priority community concerns. Where speeds are inappropriate, Warwickshire Police send notices to the drivers to encourage them to reduce their speed when driving in the future.

The Parish Council has arranged for a Police Officer from the Safer Neighbourhood Team to come to the Village Hall on
Monday, 17th January 2011 at 6.30p.m.
– before the Parish Council Meeting – to explain the scheme more fully and answer any questions.

All residents of Little Compton who would like to know more are welcome
