Ban illegal right turns at Foleshill junction

The Issue

Arbury Avenue junction in foleshill  has become notorious for its constant illegal right turns that endanger every pedestrian, cyclist, and motorist. My children use this route regularly, and the growing disregard for traffic rules at this junction has heightened my concern for their safety. With countless examples of near-misses and a tragic memory of a family friend's loss at a similarly dangerous road a few years ago, it's clear that immediate action is needed to prevent another tragedy.

The safety of our children and community members should not be compromised by the reckless and unlawful actions of a few drivers. Tackling this issue is essential to creating safer roads for everyone. Illegal right turns lead to chaotic intersections, creating confusion and increasing the risk of accidents. These unlawful maneuvers not only violate traffic regulations but put everyone's safety in jeopardy.

To address this urgent issue, we demand the installation of clear, visible signage that explicitly prohibits right turns at this junction. Additionally, implementing regular monitoring and law enforcement presence will deter would-be violators and instill a sense of responsibility among all road users.

This petition calls upon local authorities to prioritise the safety of Foleshill community members by enforcing stringent measures against illegal right turns. Let's prevent tragedy before it happens by making our roads safer for everyone. Every signature represents a step towards a safer Foleshill. Please sign this petition and help us ensure a safe passage for our children and all others who travel this route daily.
