Speed bumps- Hardwick Road

We the undersigned petition Brighton & Hove Council to install speed bumps on Hardwick Road to stop people speeding up the street

It’s a bus route but this shouldn’t matter as the avenue in bevendean has bumps and this doesn’t affect the buses. It’s never just generally one person it’s normally a fair few people everyday.

Council response

Response provided at the ET&S Committee on the 8th October 2019:

"The Council receives a large number of requests for traffic calming across the City and therefore we need to prioritise funding for those roads with the highest number of casualties over a three year period.
We have checked the collision data for Hardwick Road and there have been no collisions in the last 3 years. Based on this information, the safety risk history at this location would not be sufficient to be prioritised over other roads in the City at the current time. However, we are in the process of procuring some mobile vehicle activated signs that can be used to alert motorists when they are exceeding the speed limit. The plan is for these to be moved around the City to address speeding concerns and to influence driver behaviour.
We are still in the early stages of this project and so the assessment criteria has not as yet been finalised however Hardwick Road will be added to the list for consideration when this scheme is up and running".
