Petition Action

Install two gates either side of the A281 where the downs link and A281 meet.

Petition Details

After the devastating loss of life on the A281 the residents of Rudgwick would like gates installed either side of the main road where the downslink meets the A281. There are currently signs, although barely visible to those using the downs link, especially those new to the area.

Additional Information

The A281 is a busy road, it’s a dangerous road to cross at the best of times however for those who do not know the area it is critical to have an intervention before the main road occurs.
Gates would insure those crossing have stopped, waited and have seen the main road ahead.
Although the speed limit changes from 60 to 40mph just before the crossing many vehicles do not adhere to this, therefore a gate for additional safety of the downslink users is critical.
