Speed Edwin Road

We the undersigned petition the council to We the undersigned residents of Edwin Road Rainham petition Medway Council and its officers to implement speed calming measures .

In order to slow the increasing speeding vehicles using Edwin Road . There is a school at the top of the road and the "slow down" light do nothing to slow the vehicles.
Edwin Road is a long straight wide road enabling cars to reach high speed combined this with a tight bend at Sylvan Road and the considerable increase in traffic over the last couple of years makes this positively dangerous. This has been brought to the attention of the police at Neighbourhood watch meetings but due to no human fatalities has been disregarded.
There have been near misses when residents try to leave their drives to join the road due to the speed of cars , they seem to appear from nowhere. We wish to avoid risk of collisions and injury.
The noise and vibration nuisance from speeding vehicles shake windows and residents close their windows because of the noise.
Sadly several beloved pets have been killed recently on this road . Please don't wait for a human fatality before action is taken.
