We are petitioning for the speed limit on Binstead Lodge Rd (Ryde PO33) and the surrounding estate to be reduced to 20 mph and to have traffic calming measures put in place. We believe the flow of traffic is far too fast for these roads and is putting the lives of children, elderly/disabled, horses and riders and other animals at risk. At the moment we have the same 30 mph speed limit as a main road which we, as residents, consider allowing vehicles to travel at this speed through Binstead Lodge Rd is unsatisfactory and dangerous. Having a reduced speed limit enforced will deter vehicles from using the estate as a cut through when there is a build up of traffic along the main Binstead Rd and make road users drive more responsibly on our residential roads, therefore keeping our community safer.

I would also bring to your attention that we residents in Verwood Drive are experiencing excess vehicle speeding as this stretch of Road is also being used as a Rat Run in preference to turning into Binstead Lodge Road at each end.

Every day I witness speeding bikes, cars and vans around the area. It is only a matter of time before a serious accident takes place. We need measures put in place to reduce the overall speed of traffic and the mindsight of those driving unsocialliy.

I live on Ringwood road opposite the green. The speed which cars come down and from the roundabout to Binsted Lodge road and go around the bend is terrifying and beyond dangerous. We don't need speed bumps Just a reduced speed limit.

Appalling driving especially as there are lots of parked cars and young children in the vicinity. A lot of the drivers I've seen whizzing up and down the road seem to think it's Silverstone racetrack.

Cars constantly drive too fast on this patch - it's an accident waiting to happen! Please make changes to prevent this.
