Sharon Davy, Conservative Lewes District Councillor for Chailey, has called on East Sussex County Council and Sussex Police to undertake a review of the speed limits and crossings on the A272 Station Road in North Chailey.
Councillor Sharon Davy presented her petition, which was signed by over 100 local residents, to the Chair of East Sussex County Council, Cllr Peter Pragnell, at the Full Council meeting which took place on the 7th December.
Cllr Sharon Davy said "It’s essential that the review takes place at the busiest times of the day - especially when our children are going to and coming back from school. That’s a priority. We also need Sussex Police to support our speed and safety review."
The petition was also supported by Chailey's East Sussex County Councillor, Matthew Milligan who said "I am pleased to support Cllr Sharon Davy's call for a speed and safety review of this road, I know that many residents want to see a change as Station Road has become increasingly more residential in recent years and the speed limits must reflect this change."
The petition has requested that this speed review be undertaken by the end of 2022.
