Why this petition matters

Started by Michelle Byrne

Too many vehicles speed down Britannia Street, Shepshed, therefore traffic calming measures need to be put in place for the safety of the community. I requested for traffic calming measures in 2020, after I almost got mowed down by a van when myself and my partner was on the path whilst pushing our baby in her pushchair however, I was advised that not enough accidents/ incidents had been reported for measures to be taken.

We have to wait for accidents to happen before prevention measures are put in place.

There is a primary school on the corner and an accident waiting to happen isn't good enough.

I am requesting for a speed restriction of 20 mph as well as a zebra crossing to be placed down Britannia Street or possibly a one way system. Or even better, a crossing, a speed bump and a speed camera! Something to enable the community of Shepshed to cross the road safely. 

Thanks for your support!
