Macclesfield Road, Prestbury

  • Reference Number: 3435
  • Date released: 07 November 2011

Request

Further to my telephone call to your offices this morning, I am writing to request a report detailing the number of reported road accidents (attended by police) & the number of reported road incidents (reported by the public, but not necessarily attended by police), over the last 3 years, on Macclesfield Road, Prestbury.

As a resident on the road, I am very concerned about the speed of traffic along the road, despite the 30mph limit. I am currently in contact with my local Councillor to make a case for a safety scheme to be put in place. I am hoping this information will support me with this.

Response

In accordance with section 1(1) (b) of the Act our response is provided below;
