Concerns about road safety in the village have been brought to the attention of the Parish Council. The Parish Council has no direct powers to address this sort of concern as the Highways Authority is Derbyshire County Council.
The Parish Council has decided to write again to its County Councilor asking for these concerns to be addressed. The text of this letter is below.
In order to provide substance to any future lobbying, residents are encouraged to note any “near misses” that concern them. These can be e-mailed to the Parish Clerk using clerk@parwichparishcouncil.org.uk.
Text of e-mail to Councillor Spencer:
Dear Councillor Spencer,
Parwich Parish Council have asked me to write to you as their local councillor.
Would you please bring the following matters to the attention of the relevant Cabinet member and Committee.
20 mph speed limits.
In 2020 the Parish Council was provided with a lengthy explanation of Derbyshire County Council’s reluctance to implement 20mph speed limits. Since that time residents and councillors have seen the widespread implementation of 20mph limits in other parts of the country. There is continued concern in the village about vehicle speeds. Especially where there are blind corners and no pavements. The Parish Council would like to place on record their continued disappointment that Derbyshire County Council remains unwilling to act to limit speeds in small villages like Parwich.
Playground sign.
In 2019 it had been agreed that it would be beneficial to install a ‘children playing’ warning sign on the main road through the village as it approaches our unfenced children’s playground on the village green. This was to be addressed when money became available. In 2020 in a reply addressing this (as well as the speed limits) Gill Turner again advised that
“this is something that is proposed commensurate with current priorities and workloads”
However the village is still waiting for this signage to appear.
An update on both matters would be appreciated.
Regards
Andrew Martin
Clerk RFO. Parwich Parish Council
