The latest crash on a "dangerous" set of roads has intensified calls for the area to be declared a school zone "before somebody dies".Yet another collision happened near Meole Brace School and The Priory School in Shrewsbury this week.
It comes after campaigners called for road safety measures to put in place in the area. Meole Traffic Group has been lobbying Shropshire Council for safer roads for a number of years, and at the end of last year the Radbrook Road Safety Group was launched by two mums whose sons had been involved in incidents on the roads.
A raft of safety measures are on the cards for the area, including a 20mph zone. Last month, campaigners from the Radbrook group were told by a Shropshire Council officer that the authority will be"making it safer to walk and cycle" in the area and more details will be on the way in February 2023.
Im not the only one, who thought this was Harold Bishop am I? (to be fair I was scrolling quite fast looking for a different post)
No dangerous roads,just dangerous driving. In this case a kid not paying attention on their bike, but the number of people killed or injured by drivers is thousands of times higher. School run bad drivers are all parents, strange they don't care.
