Speed restriction and traffic calming measures South Nutfield

We the undersigned petition Surrey County Council to introduce traffic and speed calming measures in South Nutfield to protect the residents of Nutfield and our community. We have serious and long standing concerns regarding speeding and erratic driving / poor parking in the village of South Nutfield, with particular concern for Kings Cross Lane, near Christ Church, and Mid Street where the local School, Nutfield Church Primary, is located. We would like to open up a dialogue with you to discuss speed calming measures that we, as a community, collectively know are needed to ensure the safety of the local school children, parishioners and members of the local community. We are seeing a continued issue with speeding and dangerous driving / parking throughout the village and there have been a number of near misses with children coming out of Christ Church and from the primary school. Another regular hotspot for accidents and near misses is on the junction of Kings Cross Lane and Kings Mill Lane / Bower Hill Lane.

We would like to see safety and calming measures put in place to protect the residents of Nutfield and our community and would suggest some traffic calming measures such as:
Suggested calming measures:
• Speed bumps along Mid Street and Kings Cross Lane
• 20 mile per hour speed limit in the village with 15 mile per hour speed limit outside the school
• Pedestrian crossing outside the school
• “SLOW” markings on the roads / SLOW signs (LED sign)
• Speed camera along Kings Cross Lane
• One way priority
• Double yellow lines on the junction of The Avenue and Kings Cross Lane to prevent parking close to the junction
It is only a matter of time before a child or member of the community is seriously hurt or killed in an accident and we feel it is unacceptable to wait for this to happen before something is done about these issues.
