In 2011 the Parish Plan stated
‘Speed of traffic through Burton: 75% of all respondents – and 90% of those who live in Burton – say that traffic drives too fast on the road through Burton (B4039). The police are aware of this concern but have said recently that ..“based on the initial speed survey data, Burton does not now qualify for enforcement by the police but would meet the criteria for Community Speed Watch”.
Following this, Nettleton Parish Council arranged for a temporary speed warning sign for a few weeks in 2011.
We do not appear to be eligible for a permanent speed warning sign, and therefore the only long term solution open to us to reduce speeding is to set up a Community Speed Watch Scheme.
