Possible speed restriction scheme in Woolage Green

Now that the 30mph restriction has been completed in Woolage Village, we now turn to Woolage Green.

We have already started the process of introducing a speed restriction scheme. A traffic survey (measuring speeds) will begin in the next few weeks, thanks to Mike Sole, who is funding it from his community allowance.

The total cost of the scheme will exceed £4000 but will be met from Mike Sole, with a contribution from KCC and the Parish Council.

If successful, the signs will be placed at the three entrances to the village with no repeater signs. There is also the possibility of SLOW markings on the road at the bend by the Two Sawyers.

The scheme will be for a 30mph limit but, depending on the speed survey results, could be a 20mph limit.

30mph scheme in Woolage Village

Thanks to everyone who attended the event to celebrate the 30mph scheme in Woolage Village. Special thanks go to Mike Sole for organising the event and to our local Police Officers Liam and Simon for attending.

The latest Newsletter (Summer 2023) is now available and is being delivered to all households in the Parish. For online access click here to view.

Litter Pick

Thanks to everyone who turned out in April to take part in our litter pick. As always there was a large amount including, as here, 7 tyres!

I just don't know why people dump stuff and expect others to pick it up!
