Please note the date of the proposed IEMD is incorrectly shown on the report as 11.00 on 3 Oct - this should state 31 Oct.

Thanks for sending report for the proposed reduction in the speed limit on Fleet Hill, Finchampstead. As previously indicated I am in full support and the email correspondence I have received from residents reflects the formal responses you have also received from them.

If the IEMD is approved by Cllr Bowring on 31 Oct when is the work - signage, VAS, road studs and road markings likely to be implemented?

Could you please confirm that when you refer to the 10 accidents in the last 5 years, that these are injury accidents? If that is the case, I really think it should be made clearer in your responses to the few objectors, some of whom seem to be of the mistaken opinion that there have not been any injury accidents here.  I personally know four Finchampstead residents who have been hospitalised as a result of accidents on Fleet Hill.
