Local Priorities Road Safety Issues Message

I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Road Safety Issues, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

Today we conducted speed checks on the B4214, in the village of Staplow. We are pleased to say that on the whole, most drivers were below the 40mph speed limit, but the top speed recorded was 46mph. Those who were caught exceeding the speed limit will be receiving warning letters in due course advising them of their manner of driving.

Speeding in Staplow is a community concern and the parish council are in the process of starting a community speed watch (CSW) group. You can find out more information about CSW at https://www.westmercia.police.uk/news/west-mercia/news/2022/february/could-you-make-a-difference-to-the-safety-of-the-roads-in-your-community

Unfortunately we cannot be everywhere at once, but we can be anywhere!

If you ever experience this issue or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.westmercia.police.uk, speak to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat or call the non-emergency number 101.

Alternatively, you can stay 100 per cent anonymous by contacting the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via their untraceable online form at crimestoppers-uk.org
