🚨 Make Nansledan Safer — Demand Urgent Action on the A3059 🚨

Since the opening of the new Strategic Route — now designated the A3059— through Nansledan, road safety has significantly deteriorated. Crossing this road, especially at the main roundabout, has become dangerously unsafe for residents.

🚧 Key Safety Concerns:

• The road has a 30mph speed limit, despite originally being planned and signed off as 20mph. This was changed at the last minute without consultation.
• No safe pedestrian crossings exist that stop traffic—vital for children, the elderly, and people with disabilities.
• There have already been 10+ near misses, many involving young children.
• The 30mph road runs just 20 metres from a nursery entrance.
• The main roundabout is especially hazardous: two lanes funnel into one, and drivers rarely indicate, making it unpredictable and high-risk.

🛑 What We're Calling For:

• Three traffic light-controlled pedestrian crossings (see image at the bottom)
• A 20mph speed limit on the A3059 through Nansledan

📊 Why It Matters:

Lowering the speed limit from 30mph to 20mph leads to:

• 42% fewer injury accidents
• 53% reduction in serious or fatal collisions
• Safe crossings will allow all members of our community to move freely and confidently—connecting homes, schools, parks, and shops across Nansledan.

📉 What’s Been Done So Far:

Countless emails, council meetings, police reports, and phone calls have been made—but no meaningful progress has been achieved.

Both the Duchy and Cornwall Council are aware, but neither seem to be taking full responsibility.

We are not waiting for a tragedy to force change. We are demanding proactive action—now—before someone is seriously hurt or worse.
