Appendix 3

Four responses from residents of Church Street re traffic calming.

1.

We live along Church Street and we are very grateful for your information about the proposed traffic calming scheme.

We had a positive reaction when we looked at the map and the options. We have now had a few days to think about it and would like to make the following suggestions:

1. It would make it difficult for us to turn left out of our drive if the curb outside the Waterton Arms was built up. This may also be an issue for numbers 77, 79, 81 and the new house being built behind number 81. Our strong preference would be for white line hatching.

2. In place of the white lines in the centre of the road on the eastbound approach, we would suggest another area of white line hatching, from approximately number 85 to number 91. This would significantly slow down the westbound traffic and the traffic turning out of the new housing development. There would need to be appropriate 'Give Way' and 'Priority' signage at each end of both areas of white line hatching.

3. We would also suggest 'Give Way' signage for the traffic driving out of the new housing development.

Please see attached photograph for more information.

Thank you for the info re: proposed traffic calming, it's good to see action at last.

We live along Church Street & have experienced numerous accidents over the last 40 years. The police would be able to give you precise dates & details as they have been involved on the worst occasions.

My neighbours at no:89 have had their house damaged on at least 3 occasions - one causing £60,000 of damage.

My previous neighbours at 85 had the 4 ft brick wall, adjacent to the pavement, demolished & a work van written off, plus the highway chevron sign obliterated.

Large stones on the green next to no: 91 were installed following an incident several years ago.

The proposals look like a good solution. I think there also needs to be a convex traffic mirror installed opposite the entrance to the new development so that residents can look in either direction on exiting. I think it would help to have a 20mph in the section of road shown as cars coming from the Church towards Market Deeping will have a very restricted view round the bend & will be proceeding with the white priority arrow.

3.

Thank you for your letter dated 29 July 2022.

We don’t believe that giving priority over westbound traffic will prevent further accidents.  All major accidents on this bend have been from westbound traffic travelling too fast with the apex of the bend pushing them into the path of Number 89 Church Street.  Traffic calming on both sides of the road would be more effective - slowing down traffic both east and west bound (something similar to Glinton?).

The placing of signage - please ensure that any signage placed does not hinder other residents safe exit on to Church Street.

We appreciate very much that the Parish Council objected strongly to the new development.  We believe that the owners of the development should have been made to contribute towards improving road safety, as they have added to the existing problems, and that this should have been a condition of planning permission.

We have lived at Church Street for six years.  Four of those years we have had to put up with noise and disruption from the new development (our garden runs along the full length of the new housing).  The developers removed all our mature hedging on the promise of replacing it and we are still battling with them to resolve this (they don’t turn up for meetings and don’t return calls).

We are very keen to get the dangerous situation with traffic resolved, but would appreciate as little disruption as possible.  We love living in Deeping St James and look forward to when this issue can be resolved.

Thank you for including us in this process and if we can help with anything then please let us know.

 

4.

Our property has been involved in 2 accidents in the last 3 years. Cars crashed into the front / side of our house on the 1st August 2019 and again on the 21st April 2021.

There are other incidents that I'm aware of but unfortunately, I have no record of the dates:

1) The low wall outside number 83 was knocked down by a car a number of years ago.

2) A car ploughed into the bollards that used to be positioned along the edge of the Parish garden, next to number 91 (they were later replaced by the large rocks that are there now).

3) A car ran into the wall outside number 81 (I believe the current owner lived there at the time so he should be able to provide more details on that).

I hope that's helpful but if you need any more information please feel free to get in touch.
