Speeding is the number 1 issue raised with the police as a concern. In the Parish there are two groups who work to help manage speeding.
The first is the SID team who deploy a parish owned SID unit which monitors the busiest and fastest roads 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
The second is the Speedwatch group which was set up by Hampshire Constabulary, and they operate a manned unit in their spare time.
The police have also carried out some enforcement, but there is always pressure for more.
The next Community Forum will be held at Merchistoun Hall on Tuesday 8th October from 6:30 on. Representatives from the SID team, Speedwatch and The Police will be on hand to discuss the issues. If you would like to take part, or support one of the groups by volunteering then please come along, or contact me.
