Speeding vehicle likely to cause killed or seriously injured pedestrians, and vehicles parking on the pavement.

Reported in the Pavements/footpaths category anonymously at 15:17, Wed 5 July 2017

Sent to Hampshire County Council 3 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 1066447.

Many vehicles using Gladys Avenue, Cowplain (which is a 30mph limit), are driving at a speed which is far too fast for this residential area. The speed is also exacerbated by vehicles parking on pavement making the road a clear run. This pavement parking has also made pedestrians using the pavement having to go into the road to pass around these vehicles. On two occasions in the last couple of evenings children passing around these pavement parked vehicle have nearly been hit by vehicles. Please please may we have a 20mph limit and enforcement of on-road parking only and no pavement parking. Hopefully then vehicles will stagger their parking and this hopefully will encourage vehicles to go even slower. If a 20mph is not forthcoming due to lack of crash statical data of killed and serious injuries, please may we have at least a 20mph is plenty sign, and enforcement of on road parking only - no pavement parking!!!

  • Vehicles still continuously park on the pavement in Gladys Avenue, Cowplain, which is making the pedestrian step out on to the road. Due to this vehicle pavement parking, a clear run of the road has enabled vehicles to obtain greater speeds. This in turn could prevent vehicles being able stop in time for the pedestrian who have been force into the road because the pavement is blocked.

  • It doesn’t seem if the local authority are even attempting to stop the pavement parking - they are just not interested.
