Ashridge Drive residents want the hump
Residents on Ashridge Drive, South Oxhey have called on Hertfordshire County Council to implement traffic calming measures on their road.
Residents have complained about how fast drivers travel down Ashridge Drive, which is used as short-cut to avoid a speed camera on Prestwick Road. Over 100 residents have signed a petition launched by Labour Councillor Paul Gordon. Rachel Mulvey an Ashridge Drive resident said “something needs to be done about the speed of traffic on this road. The speed of some cars on Ashridge is Drive is ridiculous. It puts my children at risk when they’re playing outside. A really bad accident could happen at any time.” Nicole Hyde, another Ashridge Drive resident, said “Three of my cats have been killed by drivers using Ashridge Drive. They come down here too fast. At night it’s terrible, my windows shake when some of the cars drive past. It is only a matter of time before there is a serious accident”. |
