Install speed monitoring on the Vale NW11

We the undersigned petition the council to add speed monitoring devices on the Vale street (between the Rodborough Rd roundabout until Hendon way) and a traffic sign clearly showing the speed limit. The current speed limit is 30mph but it is evident that drivers are systematically breaching this limit by a large margin and driving dangerously. This poses a risk to the resident’s safety, especially to children.

The Vale (from the Rodborough Rd roundabout until Hendon way) is quite busy with traffic which includes TFL buses (102 and 226 lines), HGVs and other large vehicles. The current speed limit is 30 mph but drivers are systematically breaching this limit by far and are constantly racing through the Vale. People are driving so fast that every time a car speeds through, our house shakes. The vibrations are more intense when HGVs or TFL buses race through the street.
This is a big concern for our safety and that of our children. It could be even more disastrous in the event a speeding vehicle loses control and crashes through one of the houses.

We are therefore petitioning for :
* installing a traffic sign indicating the speed limit, and
* installing speed monitoring devices to assess the average speed at which vehicles pass through the street.
