The fastest speed recorded was 53mph with several others in excess of 50mph. all but 5 on the A606, This amplifies the current concerns about traffic on the A606 and, for the future, the impact of additional traffic from the new developments in Cold Overton Road. The analysis has been be forwarded to Rutland County Council with letter expressing LPC’s concerns about traffic volumes and speeds – and emphasising the need for a pelican crossing on the Cold Overton Road. Councillor Catlin, and the Community Speed Watch volunteers were thanked and commended by the CSW co-ordinators for carrying out a successful and thorough project. For the future, to further emphasise the community’s concerns, Council Catlin will co-ordinate a twice-yearly traffic count on the A606, separating the data for cars and HGV’s, and this again will be brought to the attention of RCC.
