Commissioners Want Speed Buffer Zones Across Parish

Andreas Commissioners says it wants new speed buffer zones for vehicles coming into the village from Bride.

The local authority says the Burma Road is a ‘priority’ as it goes from a 60mph to a 30mph.

It says residents have complained about the speed of cars around the parish especially as there are large agricultural vehicles and narrow roads.

Chair Jackie Faragher says the Coast Road is treated like a ‘racetrack’ by some cars.
