New Road Safety Projects

Flintshire County Council has announced 11 new road safety projects which will be introduced during the current year. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The projects include 6 traffic parking order revisions, which will reduce inconsiderate parking and congestion in some critical areas of the County and the provision of 5 vehicular activated warning signs on roads where excessive speeds have been recorded. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The sites have been prioritised following a review of all potential sites and particularly those where requests for the installation of these safety features have been received. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Councillor Bernie Attridge, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Environment said; ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
