Glossop SNT - Community Speed Watch Event 

PCSO Buller and two of the volunteers from the Hadfield Community Speed Watch Team completed an event on the A626 Marple Rd, Charlesworth today, Wednesday 5th August.

The event was held there between 1 55 pm  and  2.55 pm - with the speed limit being 30 mph on this stretch of road.

On this occasion a total 445 vehicles went by the team during the time the event took place and on this occasion only 3 vehicles were identified as speeding above 35 Mph.

Speeding has been identified by the local communitiy in Charlesworth as one of their Policing Priorites for this area. 

The community have spoken out by using our Community Voice Surveys online and when engaging with members of the safer neighbourhood team when out and about or at local engagement events etc.

Our Community Voice Surveys  help to find out and identify what the issues are affecting our local communities and also help to identify more ways we can support you - You can fill it out online here, www.derbyshirealert.co.uk

So we'd like to say thank you to the community from the Gamelsey and St John's ward for their help in identifying their concerns regarding speeding, particularly at this location.

And lastly our appreciation to the 2 volunteers who gave up their free time today, to try and make our roads safer to use for all and for their dedication and enthusuasm in aiming to help reduce speeding in our local communitiy.
