Background information
Council data shows traffic speeding all hours on Russell Terrace.
The "Russell Terrace Drive Safely" signs at the beginning of the residential area does very little to change the behaviour of drivers.
When previously operating the digital speed warning sign only changed the behaviour of few drivers, and due the placement of the sign, well after they enter the residential area.
Residents of 30+yrs have stated, "speed has always been an issue here".
