I am worried and constantly disturbed by speeding cars outside my house on Anderton Park Road. The speed limit is 20 mph but it is not enforced and every night there are cars speeding on this and adjoining roads.

Crazy drivers are using Anderton park rd and Sandford rd as a high speed race track in the day and night . Residents do not feel safe in the road they live in . This senseless dangerous driving will lead to a fatality, if no action is not taken.

There are always cars speeding down Sandford Road and Anderton Park Road making it very dangerous for other road users and pedestrians.

The traffic is very dangerous. I’ve had my front wall destroyed once, at night the area is used like a racetrack.

A lot of dangerous driving on these roads and they need to be made safer.

As a local resident I am dismayed by the behaviour of some motorists on these roads, particularly Belle Walk, and would like to see proposals for some action.

I am genuinely concerned about the crazy speed and anti social driving on Sandford Road, however this is in no way a request for a LTN!

As a resident of Anderton Park Road, something needs to be done about the dangerous driving.

It is becoming dangerous on Anderton Park Road. I am especially worried about children, not only crossing the road, but also walking on the pavement going to school or home.

Something definitely should be done to calm the traffic on these roads - some of the driving is nonsensical / dangerous and needs calming asap!

Driving in this area has become highly dangerous and needs to be addressed.

Please take heed of the views of our community of citizens. Anderton Park Road and some neighbouring streets are becoming well-used rat runs. Despite the speed limit of 20 MPH Anderton Park Road experiences drivers going much faster. We have seen a car overrun as it clipped another vehicle. I doubt it will cease to be a direct route from the A435 to the A 34 but severe calming measures would serve to limit the speed of traffic.

Every day I worry about the safety of my children due to reckless, dangerous, high-speed driving. We live on Sandford Road and walk along Anderton Park Road and Forest Road to get to school. No matter what time of day, we witness irresponsible drivers. We also very often get woken up in the middle of the night by loud cars zooming up and down our street. It is time that effective traffic calming measures are put in place once and for all.

Traffic volumes in the roads mentioned have increased dramatically in recent years, quite possibly by drivers trying to avoid A435 congestion (not helped by ineffective measures applied during the pandemic). Added to this is the increasingly bad driver behaviour. Speeding is now the norm and the 20mph limit is rarely observed. Speeding vehicles include cars, vans, hgv's and buses/shuttles. Even Council owned vehicles routinely speed. There are also a number of car drivers who drive at very high speeds, causing very real hazards to pedestrians. Not only traffic calming is needed. Enforcement is essential and new technology, including average speed cameras must be considered.

I feel very strongly on support of traffic calming measures on Trenant Vale. There have been a number of near misses over the past few years.

I live in the area and am concerned for the safety of my neighbours and myself. The 20mph speed limit is of no use if it is not enforced.

We need measures on these streets to force people to drive more slowly and safely. There is particularly reckless and terrifying driving which is dangerous to all.

Rose Redgrave (Birmingham, 2022-02-22)

I’ve seen way too many near misses on these roads. I don’t think we should wait for the worse to happen before we fix the problem. So many kids living in these area, it’s a disaster waiting to happen.

I reside on the road and have personally witnessed numerous incidents of dangerous driving. Every day cars zoom down the road at excessive speeds. All night long we hear engines roaring. I hear for my daughter's safety any time we walk down the road.

This whole area is used as a race track by morons in high powered cars. Does someone have to die before actiin is taken?

Rob Hall (Birmingham, 2022-02-27)

Cars racing on our streets are a threat to life and a constant source of anxiety for residents. Aside from the racers, most ‘regular’ drivers ignore the 20mph speed limit and drive at 30mph+.

I’ve lost count of the times people have gone down our road and surrounding roads at high speed as I was about to step into the road.

Time to put an end to it, to save lives and help residents feel safe.

The current traffic calming measures are insufficient and does not deter dangerous driving at all times of the day and night. Anderton park road in particular is used as a race track in both directions and also for particularly loud engined cars to demonstrate how ostentatious they are. It is only a matter of time before someone gets seriously hurt.

I am signing as I use this road to drop my 2 boys to school and it worries me to see the speeds at which the cars zoom on these inner-city roads where the speed limit is just 20-30 km/h, lots of children use these roads as there are 3 schools within the same vicinity and its a huge risk to their lives and also the people living along these roads

I live on wake green road and my 2 kids study at the school on Oakland road. Over the last few years the traffic has increased considerably and higher number of accidents and rash driving incidents. It is a nightmare walking my kids to school as there have been so many instances where the cars zoom by and ignore signals and race down anderton park and Mayfield road. This area is residential and has schools around which is really dangerous especially for children and elderly (owing to the retirement homes around).

I was compelled to sell my beautiful family home on Woodstock Rd - racers turned in frpm Yardley Wood Rd full speed by the time thy passed my home and then either screech to a halt if they were observant, else jumped the lights, meanwhile bretheren were whizzing down Anderton Park Rd and same scenario at the lights. Utter nightmare. Very dangerous. Many, many accidents. Very unpleasant environment now.

I'm signing because my sons school is right by that road and surrounding roads. Children are nearly run over daily on the walk to and from school. As well as cars parking on pavement, no room for wheelchairs or pushchairs. Its really scary. Then the racers and drug addicts of a night, getting high on those NOS canisters and driving like lunatics after. It needed addressing years ago, it's now getting out of hand.
