Street Hill / Church Road Worth - Traffic Calming Petition: Signature List Feed http://gopetition.com/signatures/street-hill-church-road-worth-traffic-calming.html Online petition signatures en-us Sun, 26 Apr 2026 03:03 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Mrs Elizabeth Packer [Signature #135] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6501648?utm_medium=rss This is complete and utter nonsense - the council are only trying to make the residents believe this will be beneficial to them but this scheme would never work.

]]> Tue, 17 Nov 2009 02:55:39 UTC 6501648 Mr Matthew Packer [Signature #134] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6501603?utm_medium=rss This is a ridiculous idea and a waste of more money from the Council. Closing the bridge is not going to solve the problem of dangerous driving so stop trying to punish the residents for other people's stupidity. I've lived in worth for 17 years and not once had any issues with locals speeding on this road. Once again this is a classic example of the council not using any common sense.

]]> Tue, 17 Nov 2009 02:46:04 UTC 6501603 Mr Peter Dyer [Signature #133] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6442411?utm_medium=rss My letter dated 30th October refers.

]]> Mon, 9 Nov 2009 08:51:57 UTC 6442411 mr Anonymous [Signature #132] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6417948?utm_medium=rss please stop trying to cut costs for once and think of resident safety, what happens in the event of a fire or other emergency, keep the bridge open and install speed bumps or somthing

]]> Tue, 3 Nov 2009 11:15:44 UTC 6417948 Mr Jonathan Draisey [Signature #131] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6416426?utm_medium=rss Stongly object to this proposal to close the bridge road. My family live on Street Hill, Worth & I know how much this will affect them and everyone living there. It is a total waste of time & totally un-neccessary. Better to concentrate your 'traffic calming' measures somewhere else that will not be upsetting & inconveniencing so many of the local people who have lived happily in this area for years with no problem to tell of the bridge road. This is a council over-reaction

]]> Tue, 3 Nov 2009 03:59:44 UTC 6416426 Mrs Claire Goodchild-Draisey [Signature #130] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6416390?utm_medium=rss It is not fair to close this road, greatly inconveniencing many residents and spoiling the enjoyment of those using the Church Road. We all bought our houses knowing we could use this road and to close it now would be far from traffic calming. It would put a lot more pressure on the alternative exiting roads and I am sure the near by residents to those roads would also have something to say about it. The Balcombe Road gets congested enough as it is! DO NOT close our road.

]]> Tue, 3 Nov 2009 03:48:08 UTC 6416390 Mrs Gillian Goodchild-Dyer [Signature #129] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6415089?utm_medium=rss I am strongly against this drastic measure to close the railway bridge as a traffic calming measure. It would severely inconvenience me and my family and in my opinion it is entirely unnecessary.

]]> Mon, 2 Nov 2009 05:22:52 UTC 6415089 MRS Sandra Ward [Signature #128] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6410713?utm_medium=rss This area of Worth has been changed beyond recognition over the last 20 years.
This bridge has always been part of old Worth and part of the journey to Worth Church. I do not believe the suggestion to close the bridge for traffic calming is justified.
I believe that anyone who has lived in or around that area for any number of years will object to this suggestion. So many of the original features of Crawley areas have been destroyed. Instead of improving the area it is loosing it's identity

]]> Sun, 1 Nov 2009 04:37:29 UTC 6410713 Mr Patrick Brady [Signature #127] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6409560?utm_medium=rss I strongly oppose this scheme. A recent survey has demonstarted that the majority of cars using this route do not exceed the speed limit. A greater hazard is the increase volume of non resident parking on Street Hill and Church Road.

]]> Sun, 1 Nov 2009 09:57:49 UTC 6409560 mr jayesh patel [Signature #126] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6408652?utm_medium=rss I absolutely and firmly disagree with the proposal to close the Bridge>

]]> Sun, 1 Nov 2009 03:27:07 UTC 6408652 MR TULIO DIFRANCESCOMARINO [Signature #125] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6405725?utm_medium=rss NO CONSULTATION WITH RESIDENTS FORMALLY RECEIVED AND A VERY SHORT SIGHTED PROPOSAL.

]]> Sat, 31 Oct 2009 04:13:17 UTC 6405725 Mr Nick Denyer [Signature #124] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6405451?utm_medium=rss Under this proposal residents living south of the bridge will have an increased journey when travelling north and vice versa. This will increase residents' transport costs and more importantly their carbon footprint. It will displace traffic on to already congested roads. In my opinion it is an ill-conceived proposal and I oppose it

]]> Sat, 31 Oct 2009 12:40:03 UTC 6405451 Dr Sarah Williams [Signature #123] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6404301?utm_medium=rss I visit my family home here often. This closure would be inconvenient to most residents and visitors, involving a significant detour. Also the junction between Street Hill and Balcome Road is not suitable for the extra traffic.

]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 03:46:12 UTC 6404301 Mrs June Airey [Signature #122] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6403530?utm_medium=rss Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:04:47 UTC 6403530 Mr Paul Mills [Signature #121] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6403518?utm_medium=rss I strongly object to the proposal of closing the bridge on Church Road to traffic and believe that traffic calming measures would be much better served by use of sleeping policemen and chiccanes. I also support the use of double yellow lines at the bottom of Street Hill due to inconsiderate and dangerous parking there.

]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:02:30 UTC 6403518 Mrs Susan Mills [Signature #120] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6403512?utm_medium=rss I strongly object to the proposal of closing the bridge on Church Road to traffic and believe that traffic calming measures would be much better served by use of sleeping policemen and chiccanes. I also support the use of double yellow lines at the bottom of Street Hill due to inconsiderate and dangerous parking there.

]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:00:59 UTC 6403512 Mr Stephen Baily [Signature #119] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6403110?utm_medium=rss Fri, 30 Oct 2009 10:13:15 UTC 6403110 Mr ROGER BERRY [Signature #118] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6402654?utm_medium=rss this is a vital exit point for the residents when trying to get out while avoiding busy traffic on other roads.

]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 07:57:48 UTC 6402654 Mrs Kerry Smith [Signature #117] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6396328?utm_medium=rss I BELIEVE THAT WE COULD USE SPEED BUMPS IN THE ROAD AS PEOPLE DRIVE TOO FAST.

WHEN WE HAD THE SNOW LAST YEAR / EARLIER THIS YEAR STREET HILL WAS CLOSED AS IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ON. IF THE BRIDGE IS CLOSED THEN RESIDENTS ARE BLOCKED IN / OUT.

]]> Thu, 29 Oct 2009 04:08:45 UTC 6396328 mrs Jennifer Thompson [Signature #116] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6392146?utm_medium=rss I fully support the petition.

]]> Wed, 28 Oct 2009 07:17:06 UTC 6392146 Mr John Thompson [Signature #115] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6391685?utm_medium=rss The council's proposal is ridicules and a waste of public money. No consideration has been made on the adverse affect the proposed scheme will have on the people living in the area. There is a significant safety risk with a single point of access to large community of homes. This is particularly relevant to Street Hill, which was closed for 3 days last winter due to snow and ice.

]]> Wed, 28 Oct 2009 05:19:51 UTC 6391685 Mr Brian Hawkins [Signature #114] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6389549?utm_medium=rss I object to this scheme. I have not seen evidence of this problem. Would speed bumps be a better solution. How would large vehicles turn around eg dust carts.

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:43:49 UTC 6389549 Mrs Anne Hawkins [Signature #113] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6389502?utm_medium=rss The claim that this is needed 'because of speeding traffic' is bizarre. The road is narrow and twisting, which slows traffic anyway. There is no space to put 'turning areas', so traffic that does not know the area , such as delivery vans, will get stuck, and cause chaos - and probably damage - when trying to turn. There will be additional traffic turning right from Street Hill into the Balcombe Road, which can be difficult at busy times - unless improvements are made to this junction.

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:33:44 UTC 6389502 Miss Laura Stokes [Signature #112] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6389463?utm_medium=rss What a crazy scheme! Would not be able to get out in bad weather and would struggle to turn right at the bottom of Street Hill on to the Balcombe Road. Why do you even need a scheme - nobody speeds down these roads!

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:23:12 UTC 6389463 Miss Claire Stokes [Signature #111] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6389445?utm_medium=rss The scheme is ridiculous and badly thought out. It would add a lot of time to my journeys going north to Horleyand in snowy weather we would not be able to drive out at all.

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:20:45 UTC 6389445 Mrs Joanna Stokes [Signature #110] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6389429?utm_medium=rss I strongly disagree with the proposed scheme becuase of the potential for Street Hill to become impassable in severe weather which would entrap residents south of the bridge. Emergency services in such a scenario would also struggle to reach residents in this area.

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:17:31 UTC 6389429 Mrs Amanda Meadows [Signature #109] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6389143?utm_medium=rss I do not understand how cars can be speeding down Church Road when there are sharp bends and it is a narrow road.
I travel from my house along Church Road to work collecting other passengers in Worth in the morning, so that we can all get to Maidenbower in one car. This will cause inconvenience to Worth residence.

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 03:15:41 UTC 6389143 Mr Dorian Meadows [Signature #108] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6389113?utm_medium=rss To describe a road closure as traffic calming is ridiculous. It will cause traffic chaos throughout the area.

Will West Sussex County Council put in traffic lights at the junction of Street Hill and the Balcolme Road?

This has been badly thought through. Speed bumps would be a more obvious solution to a perceived problem that has been exagerrated.

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 03:07:32 UTC 6389113 Mrs Anonymous [Signature #107] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6386997?utm_medium=rss Tue, 27 Oct 2009 07:04:55 UTC 6386997 Mr Neil Smith [Signature #106] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6386839?utm_medium=rss I oppose the changes proposed to Church Road/Street Hill (No Through Road)

]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 06:29:53 UTC 6386839 Miss Kelly Buckell [Signature #105] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6386373?utm_medium=rss Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:49:57 UTC 6386373 Mrs Vanessa Mitchell [Signature #104] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6386340?utm_medium=rss Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:44:30 UTC 6386340 Mrs Catherine Bailey [Signature #103] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6383383?utm_medium=rss Mon, 26 Oct 2009 12:54:25 UTC 6383383 Dr Anonymous [Signature #102] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6383103?utm_medium=rss The effect of local traffic having to use the B2036 as a result of the bridge closure would cause major issues of delay and safety at peak times

]]> Mon, 26 Oct 2009 11:52:59 UTC 6383103 MR MICHAEL FRANKLIN [Signature #101] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6378665?utm_medium=rss Surely something like traffic calming, would be better than closing the road! In winter street hill is very dangerous and sometimes not passible for days.

]]> Sun, 25 Oct 2009 02:41:32 UTC 6378665 mrs elizabeth franklin [Signature #100] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6378641?utm_medium=rss do something else to solve this problem, street hill is dangerous in winter a could be calamity waiting to happen,why should we be so disadvantaged !

]]> Sun, 25 Oct 2009 02:34:55 UTC 6378641 Mr Robert Murphy [Signature #99] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6377786?utm_medium=rss I’m concerned that emergency vehicles will not be able to access Church Road or Street Hill during rush hour. ( Monday to Friday 08.00 to 09.00)

]]> Sun, 25 Oct 2009 11:08:24 UTC 6377786 Mr Russell Apted [Signature #98] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6373831?utm_medium=rss As a family we use this road frequently to get to Turners Hill, Crawley Down and beyond for School Runs, etc. Closing this road to through traffic could add up to 15 minutes to every journey. But more to the point there seems no obvious reason for doing this as traffic is not that bad in this road.

]]> Sat, 24 Oct 2009 11:47:24 UTC 6373831 Mr Stewart Bailey [Signature #97] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6368636?utm_medium=rss totally opposed to the proposed closure of the bridges on Church Road

]]> Fri, 23 Oct 2009 07:44:38 UTC 6368636 Mr Norman Hards [Signature #96] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6366071?utm_medium=rss The bridge is already an effective traffic calming measure. What extra benefit is there to closing up the road completely?

]]> Thu, 22 Oct 2009 04:23:34 UTC 6366071 mr john kidney [Signature #95] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6364437?utm_medium=rss Will make life difficult for the locals

]]> Thu, 22 Oct 2009 09:42:11 UTC 6364437 Miss Stephanie Deacon [Signature #94] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6363399?utm_medium=rss Completly against this plan

]]> Thu, 22 Oct 2009 05:05:29 UTC 6363399 Mr David Gadsby [Signature #93] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6363036?utm_medium=rss Thu, 22 Oct 2009 03:19:29 UTC 6363036 Mr Derek Portsmouth [Signature #92] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6362995?utm_medium=rss To create 2 large estates with one access road in and out would be counter productive to raising the level of safety for residents living in the locality of Worth. Street Hill has been impassable when the weather is icy. This has serious implications for emergency vehicle access. A more effective alternative can be found with a 20 mph limit and width restrictions between the bridge and the Street Hill junction with the Balcombe Road.

]]> Thu, 22 Oct 2009 03:05:00 UTC 6362995 Mrs Mary Sullivan [Signature #91] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6361290?utm_medium=rss This will impact severely on traffic in surrounding roads.

]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2009 03:44:10 UTC 6361290 Mr Alexander Perry [Signature #90] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6361072?utm_medium=rss I oppose the proposal, it'll no doubt have a severe impact on my annual fuel costs and cause an inconvenience to me, my neighbours and my visitors.

]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2009 03:02:29 UTC 6361072 mr kevin turner [Signature #89] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6360737?utm_medium=rss the traffic calming measures are being funded by a local developer and has misled teh local community by suggesting that they are acting for the council; we do not need traffic calming and any prospectice development should be resist as it will change the immediate Worth Church vicinity

]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2009 01:49:16 UTC 6360737 Mrs Kathy Aston-Dive [Signature #88] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6358345?utm_medium=rss Wed, 21 Oct 2009 05:20:03 UTC 6358345 Mr David Bone [Signature #87] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6357911?utm_medium=rss I have made my views know directly, but am absolutely opposed to the idea.
I have never thought there to be a traffic problem on Church Road (volume OR speed related). I used Church Road during rush hour as well run in the area first thing in the morning. It's always very quiet.

]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2009 03:29:29 UTC 6357911 Mrs Brenda Agar [Signature #86] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6357769?utm_medium=rss Another waste of money

]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2009 02:56:00 UTC 6357769 mr Bryan Agar [Signature #85] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6357760?utm_medium=rss THere is not a problem with speeding traffic.

A bigger safety problem is the all day parking in Street Hill.

]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2009 02:54:06 UTC 6357760 Mr Jeremy Hodgkinson [Signature #84] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6357720?utm_medium=rss The proposal to close the road bridge will cause considerable inconvenience to the local residents of more than 300 properties. If any traffic problem exists, this is a gross over-reaction.

]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2009 02:45:52 UTC 6357720 Mrs Susan Williams [Signature #83] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355941?utm_medium=rss Having lived in Saxon Road for 17 years I was appalled to hear of the proposed closure of the bridge in Church Road for a number of reasons. These are: Inconvenience, Safety, Accessibility and Future Saleability of our Properties. I trust that common sense will prevail and this proposal will not go ahead.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 04:49:09 UTC 6355941 Mrs Barbara Lewis [Signature #82] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355773?utm_medium=rss I am opposed to the closure of the bridge. In my experience traffic does not speed along Church Road and few cars use it as a rat run.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 04:18:10 UTC 6355773 Mrs E Whiskin [Signature #81] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355437?utm_medium=rss I oppose this proposal on safety and environmental grounds

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 03:05:01 UTC 6355437 Mr Grant Whiskin [Signature #80] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355422?utm_medium=rss I object to the bridge closure proposal

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 03:03:20 UTC 6355422 Mrs Barbara Aird [Signature #79] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355365?utm_medium=rss in support of our letter to Amey

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 02:50:19 UTC 6355365 Mr Richard Aird [Signature #78] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355307?utm_medium=rss In support of my letter to S Guile (Amey) dated 15/10/09

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 02:35:13 UTC 6355307 Mr Jonathan Padua [Signature #77] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355306?utm_medium=rss The proposal is so ridiculous that even Boris Johnsson wouldn't have suggested it. Those who have put it forwad clearly don't have a clue about planning or an appreciation of the real world.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 02:35:11 UTC 6355306 MR David Roberts [Signature #76] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355250?utm_medium=rss I object to the closure of the bridge. It will not solve the speeding issue as it does not exist - no doubt due to the narrow roads and sharp corners. It will cause unnecessary inconvienience to local residents and reduce flexibility of an alternative travel route in the event of bad weather or some other event.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 02:20:02 UTC 6355250 Mr Andrew Dean [Signature #75] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6355190?utm_medium=rss .

How is closing the bridge going to stop speeding, it wont.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 01:16:51 UTC 6355036 Mr David Palmer [Signature #72] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6354539?utm_medium=rss While I can see benefits to those in the north of Church Road this would severely disadvantage those south of the bridge who use local roads to Turners Hill and East Grinstead. It would allow no secondary access to other roads which would be chaotic in the event of road works and add considerably to my time and fuel use by travelling an extra mile or so each day to make my most frequent journeys. I do however favour suitable traffic calming improvements which discourage use as a cut through.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 11:15:58 UTC 6354539 Mrs Victoria Evans [Signature #71] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6354492?utm_medium=rss As a visitor to our friends We would find the closure of the bridge a great inconvenience.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 11:00:40 UTC 6354492 Mrs Sharon Brooks [Signature #70] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6354074?utm_medium=rss I can only assume that this was suggested in jest - becasue once again, the people it will mostly impact on, are those who are not committing the offence! Residents have bought property based on the access in place and it will obviously have a negative impact on them; no only on convenience but saleability of their houses. Have you ever tried to get from Worth Church area to Pound Hill Junior school during rush hour using this route? Suggest you do before even discussing this idea any further.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:37:50 UTC 6354074 Mrs Frances Robinson [Signature #69] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6354071?utm_medium=rss I object to the closure of the bridge. I do not think it is a good idea to have just one way in and out. This will seriously add to the congestion in the area.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:37:21 UTC 6354071 Mr Robert Sullivan [Signature #68] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353971?utm_medium=rss Other traffic calming measures could be employed to slow traffic down without closing the road which will result in more traffic on the already congested Balcombe Road

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:10:25 UTC 6353971 Mr Neil Robinson [Signature #67] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353955?utm_medium=rss I am against the proposal to close Church Road. If carried out this would create problems and inconvenience for residents and visitors.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:07:07 UTC 6353955 Mrs Justine McAlister [Signature #66] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353882?utm_medium=rss .

money should be spent on more worth while projects....

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 08:41:49 UTC 6353876 Ms Susan Pegrum [Signature #64] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353765?utm_medium=rss One has to ask where the calming refers to. Does it mean Street Hill, Church Road or where. A major inconvenience to the residents of Saxon Road

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 08:14:01 UTC 6353765 Mr Reg Williams [Signature #63] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353738?utm_medium=rss A major cause for concern for the residents of Saxon Road would be the use of Street Hill during icy or snowy weather

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 08:09:04 UTC 6353738 Miss Laura Williams [Signature #62] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353702?utm_medium=rss For residents who have lived in this area for many years (my mother being one of them), this change will dramatically increase driving times and present some drivers with difficult manoeuvres (turning right out of Street Hill in rush hour for example). Surely some other traffic calming measures could be considered rather than this drastic and very inconvenient proposal.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 08:00:20 UTC 6353702 Mr Reece Williams [Signature #61] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353677?utm_medium=rss Strange idea, particularly due to the recently developed housing estates all the way down both Street Hill and Church Road. It may calm traffic from people using it as a cut through, but for some residents it will drastically worsen their experience as they have to take the long route round due to not being able to access a particular end of the road. During rush hour this could have a massive impact on their journeys.

]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 07:52:29 UTC 6353677 MR JOHN HAYWOOD [Signature #60] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353657?utm_medium=rss Tue, 20 Oct 2009 07:46:27 UTC 6353657 Mrs Kirsty Butcher [Signature #59] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6353632?utm_medium=rss To close the bridge will cause a great deal of inconvenience and add time onto what woukld be a simple journey. I have to drop my children off at hte childminders who lives in the Ridings. If I was to exit via the Street Hill exit this will add 10/15 minutes to my journey due to the sheer weight of traffic travelling along the balcome road. Also if there was an accident at the Street Hill junction we would have no alternative route. We all urge you to reconsider this proposa;

Travelling down Street Hill and turning right on to the Balcombe Road must be a Health and Safety concern that should be seriously looked at. The layout of Street Hill and Church Road and the "giving way to traffic" on the bridge does not allow speeding to happen on the road during normal circumstances.

We like the road layout as it has been for years, and wish it to stay as it is. There are far more important road safety issues to deal with, such as cars speeding along the balcombe road, who come across the pedestian crossing, which has been place on a blind bend, near to the Audi garage.

The road is too narrow and the traffic calming measures already in place work perfectly well to allow residents to CHOOSE which way they would like to enter/exit the area. People have bought property in this area mindful of the fact that they can enter and exit via the Turners Hill Road and the Balcombe Road. To close the bridge is an unnecessary inconvenience and should not happen.

Can WSCC / Amey provide the local residents with the data from the recent measurements that were taken in Church Road.

If there is a problem why not enforce a reduced speed limit ?

I would also like to know why local developers are so willing to provide funding for the scheme.

Having lived in the immediate area for several years I have never noticed an issue with the speed or volume of traffic on Street Hill.

1. If the residents knew that it was a busy road then why did the council give permission to build 2 houses opposite each other very next to the bridge.

2. Same reisdents parks their car on the raod making it even more dangerous to other drivers and oncoming traffic.

3. If the closure goes ahead then all the traffic from Saxon Road and other road will have to go down Street Hill which then will not be fair on the res
