Longfellow Road is a wide road running from the Forum to Hipswell Highway.The limit on this road is 30mph but cars regularly exceed this. It is on a bus route with a number of bus stops with passengers alighting and crossing the road. It is also a main route for children attending Ravensdale Primary School from the houses across Longfellow Road,in Tennyson and adjoining roads. Last year the crossing patrol was removed due to council cutbacks.<br /><br />
This petition is asking the council to manage this road either by reinstating the crossing patrol, adding a Pelican crossing (which would help residents 24/7), putting an enforceable speed restriction of 20mph, or other suitable measures to ensure the safety of all residents particularly children crossing the road.
