Whatever the reason for the 50mph limit, if a driver cannot slow down from 70 to 50 SAFELY then they should not be driving! You should be checking and adjusting your speed on every single road you drive on. This petition has been started and written by a complete and utter numpty!! Then signed by (currently) 1876 people who are more bothered that it’s taking them an extra 1 or 2 minutes to get to work!
Fixed cameras are needed on roads such as A483, A5156, A5. These roads get abused daily especially by motorcycles on a Sunday. North Wales Police fail to acknowledge the issue and GoSafe couldn’t care less as long as they’re pulling in the cash on the Rossett flyover!
IF cameras are installed, trucks, cars, coaches, motorcycles, etc will have to obey the 50mph limit or they’ll get fined. At the moment the 50mph limit is obviously not working.
Would cameras be put on the 2 slip roads that enter this stretch? Otherwise vehicles are going to be driving in excess of 70/80mph when trying to merge onto a 50mph road!
If it slows vehicles down then at the end of the day that’s a good thing. ANPR camera’s will also detect people who don’t pay tax and also dodgy vehicles used to bring drugs into our town. If you’ve got nothing to hide then you don’t need to worry.
Spot on maxman. Two roads in the area that are used as a racetrack and ANPR will clamp down on all the tax dodgers!
