Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

Have you been through Hillcrest recently?
Changes to a busy road in Hillcrest are being reviewed before they’re even finished after they “horrified” residents and shop-owners.
Local Murray Brown’s up in arms about the new layout on Cambridge Rd. Parking spaces have disappeared near Hillcrest Stadium and nearby shops, and he says the configuration leaves drivers backing out of parking spaces into oncoming traffic that they can’t see - which includes trucks and double-decker buses.
