Install average speed cameras on the A607
The Issue
The pain of losing a loved one to a road collision is indescribable.
We recently lost a beloved friend on the A607, a road notorious for its high speeds and dangerous driving conditions. His daughter, who survived, now carries the scars of this tragic incident. This heartbreak has spurred us into action, and we ask for your support to make this road a safer place for everyone.
The A607 has become a perilous route due to the frequent speeding incidents that occur daily. Official statistics show that over the past few years, accidents have become alarmingly frequent on this stretch of road, leading to severe injuries and, most heartbreakingly, the loss of precious lives. This is not just data; these are real stories of families torn apart and futures altered forever.
To tackle this urgent issue, we propose the installation of average speed cameras along the A607. This proven technology monitors vehicles' speeds over a stretch of road, ensuring that drivers adhere to speed limits consistently. Other regions have successfully reduced speeding and accidents by implementing these measures, and it is time for our community to benefit from the same level of protection.
The cost of neglect is far higher than the implementation of speed cameras. Ensuring road safety is not just a convenience; it is a necessity. The installation of average speed cameras will deter reckless driving and promote safe travel, potentially saving countless lives.
We urge the local council and highways authorities to take immediate action. Your support and signature can make a difference. It can help prevent family and friends from experiencing the pain and suffering we have endured. Join us in this cause and sign our petition to bring about urgent change on the A607. Let's come together as a community and prioritize the safety of everyone who travels on this road. Your voice matters and can be the catalyst for change. Sign today and help us create a safer future for all.
I cannot find a report online to show exactly how many crashes have happened but I have taken screen shots on google to show crashes ranging from 2012 - 2025, there is far more but I think people will get the jist from the screenshots, starting with a picture of Ash & Lacey.
