Traffic Calming for Kingsbrook and Kings Road Whalley Range

My colleague Cllr Peter Morrison alongside Cllr Mary Watson and Labour campaigner Kath Fry have successfully pressed the council to draw up a traffic calming scheme for Kingsbrook and Kings Road.

Cllr Peter Morrison stated: "Residents in this area of Whalley Range have been lobbying me and my Labour colleagues for sometime. Over eight collisions have occurred at the junction of Kingsbrook and Withington Road, cars drive at ridiculous speeds in this residential area and it has become rat run".

The draft scheme is part of a broader road safety initiative in the area to ensure that accidents at the junction of Wilbraham Road and Withington Road are reduced.

Please do respond to the surveys that will be posted through your doors over the next week or so. It is thanks to residents that we have got this far, lets have the final push.
