Re: Traffic Headley road - Jaybee (22nd Feb 2011 - 08:34:45) There is also a speed problem in Midhurst Road, between Station Road & Highfield Lane. I have seen police speed checks in London Road near Radford Park & on the Portsmouth Road at Bohunt Manor but never on Headley,Haslemere or Midhurst Roads

Re: Traffic Headley road - Susie (22nd Feb 2011 - 19:29:59) There are speeding problems all over! Walking my dog at 6 every morning Haslemere Road becomes a race track and I've witnessed several near misses involving cats recently. I have taken a few number plates and am prepared to name and shame if I see anyone hit anything and drive off! As a parent I am also dismayed at the amount of people who speed through the 20mph zone even during school leaving time. Oh and as for the young man, the bus and the ice cream man who speed down the hill on the road I live on, it's only a matter of time before there's an accident. Is anyone in that much of a rush that it's worth the risk of causing a death? An extra 5 mph can mean the difference between a slight injury and death when being hit by a car.

Re: Traffic Headley road - SJ (24th Feb 2011 - 17:50:38) Sorry to say it,you probaly need a fatal accident before the local council,police force, will actually get of their fat backside's and do something about it. There is a local haulage company,whose lorrys come up the Headley Road at break neck speed,your talking 40 tons at 40mph,don't think they will stop in time!

Re: Traffic Headley road - Helen M (25th Feb 2011 - 18:01:01) i've found the traffic has slowed quite a bit since the road from passfield was dropped down in speed? (Not saying its the safest road in the the world) i'd really like a wider pavement and a 20mph speed limit from the a3 bridge but i can live and dream...

Re: Traffic Headley road - Mark (27th Feb 2011 - 16:35:53) Has the council ever looked into signs with speed sensors that flash when a motorist is speeding? These I feel would make a difference to speeding hot spots around the centre of the village and by the schools if they were in place.

Re: Traffic Headley road - Rick (27th Feb 2011 - 22:53:16) We had one of those flashing speed signs in the Haslemere Road. It flashed so many times in the week it broke down. They are not a deterent, the speed camera is but when do we see police in the village.

Re: Traffic Headley road - Jaybee (3rd Mar 2011 - 19:07:58) A yellow "Kill your speed sign" has suddenly appeared in Midhurst Road between Gunns Farm & Hollycombe close.
