The Parish Council is interested in understanding how the local community feels about controlling speeding through our village, below are some options. We will need to apply for funding for all of these options and community support is vital for that. The Zebra crossing would be situated by the bus stop, and cost approximately £25,000 plus. The Mobile Speed Indicator Device is approximately £3,000. For the creation of the 20mph for the village approximately £3,000. For the extension of the 30mph towards Totterdown approximately £3,000
