Road Safety in Sible Hedingham
30mph wheelie bin stickers available free
We have 30mph wheelie bin stickers available free for anyone who is concerned with speeding through the village. The stickers are designed to go on wheelie bins left out along the roadside and will remind drivers of the 30mph speed limit. Members of the Transport & Highways Committee will be out and about offering them to residents over the next few weeks. They will also be available at the Annual Parish Meeting on Monday 16 April. In the meantime please contact the clerk if you would like one for your bin.
‘No Excuse’ Road Safety Campaign
The ‘no excuse’ road safety campaign was launched on 11 January which brings together police enforcement and road safety education to target routes and towns where crashes and casualties are known to occur. The ‘no excuse’ campaign is being delivered by the Essex Casualty Reduction Board (ECRB), which includes Essex County Council, Essex Police, Essex Fire and Rescue Service, The Highways Agency and The East of England Ambulance Service.
Over the coming months ECRB partners will be running overt and covert enforcement operations and events, such as SAT days, all over Essex. These events will target key poor driving behaviours including speeding, drink driving, the use of handheld mobile phones whilst driving and drivers and passengers who do not wear seatbelts.
