East Sussex County Council has recently reviewed the information provided to local communities on road safety. The aim is that the guidance and material is clear, accessible, and helpful to residents and Town and Parish Councils.
A newly developed Town and Parish Council Road Safety Toolkit sets out the County Council’s road safety responsibilities, explains the criteria and evidence used when considering requests, and provides clarity on what can realistically be delivered within the resources available. It also outlines why it may not always be possible to progress every request received from residents and includes a set of comprehensive FAQs to support future discussions with local communities.
This is an important and timely publication in the context of the shared concerns of parishes along the length of the Lower Ouse Valley who together are supporting the Safer C7 Project.
