Speeding

Unfortunately not everyone take responsibility and this why we are frustrated about those so called speed runners!!

Indeed. I believe excessive noise from moving vehicles is a police responsibility rather than Council. Can you report the issue online if you have car reg and address?

It would be great if that were possible.

I think you need to refer to the Nuisance Neighbour on Devonshire Road post for your person in question.

A supernuisance.

I thought people grew out of the Fast and Furious car stage in their teens…

Hopefully this will add to the growing list of complaints about him. Unfortunatley he knows the system well, after my original post and many complaints to the police/council he quitened down a fair bit which I believe was from some warning given to him. However the council only monitor this for the 4 weeks post the complaint. Guess what happened in the 5th week… Back to usual. Burnouts in the street, Playing insanely loud music/bass at any time of the day and obviously just revving that extremely loud exhaust whenever he can.

Fun little tidbit the other day, he seemed to have been picked up somewhere by the police as he was brought by them back here in an unmarked car. He was asked to unlock his cars as they searched them… wonder what they were looking for! Unfortunatley they didnt ask him to turn the engine on so it cant’ve been anything to do with the noise

I went out for a walk earlier and two motorbikes were whizzing very fast through the Cycle only gap on Garthorne Road. They were wearing helmets and bandanas and the second bike had a pillion passenger. They then speeded onto the wrong side of Grierson Road, skimming a couple of inches past me… I’ve seen a lot of delivery riders cutting through that gap, but these guys were going particularly fast and I suspect were also eyeing up my bag…

Count on it Suze

Waldenshaw Road is currently closed (access only, owing to the road being dug up), and the Manor Mount one-way system is suspended.

I’m not sure what the Sainsbury’s lorries are doing, but I wonder how the traffic is working out now - though during lockdown I guess it’s hard to compare.

I would say 90% of people ignore the road closed signs or simply drive over them to push them out of the way. I’m sitting here watching the traffic racing past as usual. The Sainsbury’s lorries mostly come down Manor Mount.

It took Thames Water just over a week to figure out how to stop the water leak. Technically the road is still closed to protect workers on site.
