We the undersigned petition Surrey County Council to install an
appropriate crossing facility for the use of school children &
adults as well as creating a crossing for Ashford residents to
Church Road High Street.
The junction at Feltham Hill Road, (outside St Michaels School)
close to the roundabout is a very busy road and extremely difficult
to cross unaided. A raised crossing would help slow the traffic
down. Over the past few months and with more housing going up on
Church Road, the road has seen an increase in cars following the
ease of restrictions of lockdown. Cars exit the roundabout onto
Feltham Hill Road at high speed and the constant flow of traffic
means it is very difficult road to cross and especially at busy
times.
A crossing would benefit residents in the Ashford East Ward to
cross safely and unaided. There is no place for disabled users to
safely cross the road either. We urge the Council to either use CIL
contributions for this crossing due to the rise in developments in
the area. This matter is very urgent as it relates to the safety of
school children. We would appreciate this project be considered as
high priority before a fatality/accident occurs.
