SPEEDING ON BADEN POWELL WAY, KINGS REACH.

I wanted to update residents on my progress on speeding in Baden Powell Way after several useful communications with CBC. The main issue preventing the installation of any speed restrictions is that Baden Powell Way is currently still owned by the developers and has yet to be adopted by CBC. Adoption of the road is imminent but linked to the new 1500 home development to the East of the road. I have made enquiries about the timescale and deterrents that might be implemented until the road is adopted and I am meeting with the Highways Officer next week to discuss this further. Given the speed of cars detected in the speed survey, and the understandable concern of residents, this is not an issue that CBC should ignore and I will continue to push for speed restrictions as soon as possible.
