Bredgar traffic calming
Bredgar traffic calming
This part of the traffic calming measures makes Bredgar look like a gated community. The moving of the 30 mile and hour limit a few metres south of its earlier position so that it now includes the frontage of Westfield Dairy (fence and flowers just visible on the left) seems a very sensible move. Not least because the new signs will not be obscured by the hedge as the old ones were.
Traffic really does need to slow down here as the next part of the lane is very narrow, windy and lined with vertical paving slabs which won't do your car much good if you hit them. I never did hear a sensible explanation of this particular bit of 'highway maintenance' but do recall plenty of objections when the slabs were put in some years ago.
