Reduce the speed limit to 20mph on North Way, Uxbridge and beyond

We the undersigned petition Hillingdon Council to reduce the speed limit to 20mph on North Way, Morris Avenue and Worrall Lane, Uxbridge.

North Way, Uxbridge leads to Morris Avenue and other residential roads via traffic lights. As a short road of only a few houses, a speed limit of 30mph is too fast. To ensure the safety of residents and pedestrians, the speed limit on North Way, Morris Avenue and Worrall Lane needs to be reduced to 20mph. Currently, vehicles speed across North Way to make it past the green light. It is currently unsafe for children, the elderly, people living with disabilities or other people with slower reactions times.

Benefits of the reduced speed limit around the country are highlighted here:

A parked vehicle has already been hit by a driver speeding, luckily no one was injured. However, we would like the council to take action and make this change before a more serious accident occurs.

This ePetition runs from 10/07/2024 to 10/08/2024.
