I AM worried about the speed of motorists driving along Birchfield Road in Widnes.
Lots of traffic still uses this route as a bit of a rat run to avoid the queues.
I have seen so many vehicles haring up there at a tremendous speed, certainly more than 30mph.
With so many schoolchildren walking up and down this road, I dread to think of what could happen if there was an accident.
The speed limit on Lunts Heath Road was recently reduced to 30mph but I don’t think many drivers are aware of this.
If you have not used this route for a while you could easily think it is still 40mph.
I think we need big signs warning motorists to slow down on all our major roads.
