Call for action to tackle speeding on a Barwell road.
A councillor is calling for action to tackle speeding on a Barwell road. Cllr Mathew Hulbert (Lib Dem, Barwell) has raised the issue of speeding on Stapleton Lane in the village after being contacted by residents last year and this year. Councillor Hulbert has raised the matter with both Leicestershire County Council Highways Department and Leicestershire Police. He says, "I raised this issue in September last year and I know work has been done, with Police monitoring using their speed guns and the Parish Council has also been monitoring with its speed monitor, which I very much welcome, but I've contacted both the Highways Department and the Police again to find out if more can be done. "I continue to be contacted by residents in regards to this matter, which shows that it continues to be somewhat of a problem. I look forward to working with partners to see what more can be done to ensure motorists abide by speed limits when travelling down the road."
