After residents contacted me about the new traffic calming scheme on Tuffley Avenue, I have been liaising with the Highways manager for the area and raising my concerns.

One point I have mentioned several times is that traffic is building up around the entrance to Newark Road, as there is a buildout and speed bump installed very near to the exit/entrance from Newark onto Tuffley Avenue.

Residents have found it very difficult to get out of their road, especially in the mornings.

The county council have agreed with me and the residents that a KEEP CLEAR box is needed and this will be carried out in the new year.
