You asked
Accidents on A232
Thank you.
This is very interesting and totally contradicts my enquiries of people who live on the road can you please provide detailed data as follows:-
Date of accident
Time of accident
Type of accident- car to car or van/ pedestrian to car or lorry or van
Exact Location
The blanket 20 mph is very frustrating and I think people will want detail to understand and accept. Feedback so far has not been positive.
I think it will help if we have the facts. I just hope we are not all being made to suffer because erroneous data or one traffic black spot causing the issue. I live on the Carshalton part of the road and can not recall any issues over the last 40 years.
I await the detailed data. To be honest if you can not provide it I would find it very alarming.
