The perceived speed of traffic in the village, both on the A429 and in the lanes is a frequently expressed concern of residents. Our Ward Councillor Chuck Berry therefore requested that the Parish Council sought the views of parishioners on the effectiveness and extent of the current limits.
The survey results can be found in the report: Speeding Survey Report 20260826. While a small majority thought that the limit should be reduced to 20MPH most thought that this would not necessarily help, excepting for within the lanes. There was, however, overwhelming support for extending the 30MPH limit to beyond Murcott Lane on the A429. The report, which has been noted by the Parish Council, has been submitted to Wiltshire Council, hopefully for action. We will keep you informed.
