Northwood Residents’ Association (NRA) has successfully campaigned for a new speed monitoring sign on a busy road.
This follows a recent incident on Rickmansworth Road in Northwood, in which a postman was seriously injured when he was hit by a car travelling at high speed. He sustained a broken femur.
Local residents and the NRA subsequently complained to Hillingdon Council about speeding drivers and the fact that a speed warning sign had allegedly been removed.
Rickmansworth Road, adjacent to the junction with Murray Road, has been the site of several incidents in recent years. Residents have pressed local councillors and Hillingdon Council to reinstall speed calming measures.
Recently, the newly appointed cabinet member for traffic safety, councillor Steve Tuckwell, agreed to meet with NRA representatives at the site to discuss the situation. The missing speed warning sign has now been replaced at the council’s cost.
A spokesperson for Hillingdon Council said that the sign was not removed but had been knocked down during a previous collision.
