Bypass Swaffham for HGV's

Petition Details

We want the goventment to bypass swaffham and protect our historical town which is starting to fall down around us due to the numbers of hgvs not to mention the high levels of NO².

Additional Information

The people of swaffham have been campaigning for a Swaffham bypass for over 10 years and nothing has been done. Our town has high levels of NO² which compare is already being compared to cities like London.

Recently traffic increased due to one of the main routes through town being closed after one of the towns houses started to collapse due to the years of HGVs flying through swaffham at high speeds.

When will something be done? When one of these houses falls on a someone and kills them.

We need to reduce hgv levels and pollution.
