Subject: Road Safety Improvement Proposal

Nick,

I have recently spoken with Cllr Smith-Ainsley about improving road safety at the junction between Charlton Lane and New Road/Charlton Road. This site has been the scene of a number of accidents, caused principally by vehicles travelling too fast through the junction. Luckily none of these accidents has caused major injury, but this also means that they are not recorded by the police and thus do not appear in the statistics.

We feel that safety could be improved by extending the 30mph limit that currently covers Charlton Village about 300 metres along New Road towards Littleton Church and the other side of the junction. This would, in theory at least, not only slow the traffic through the junction but also make the 30mph limit signs more visible when entering the Village from the New Road direction and reduce the risk to road users of the blind bend when entering the Village. The 40mph signs at the exit from Charlton Lane would be redundant and could be removed, although we would like the posts carrying the current 30mph signs on Charlton Road outside Manor Farm left in situ as they also carry the ‘Welcome to Charlton Village’ signs and hanging baskets in the summer.

I hope you can give this proposal positive consideration.
Thanks.

Hi Richard,

We have identified a pattern of casualties at the junction of Charlton Road, Charlton Lane and New Road through Surrey County Council's Casualty Reduction Working Group, and there are funds to undertake detailed design of a minor casualty remedial scheme. Accordingly we are commissioning the detailed design for an enlarged traffic island to prevent dangerous overtaking and corner cutting, and also to review the location of the 30mph / 40mph speed limit terminal. It may be that can extend the speed limit to the other side of Charlton Lane as you suggest, but this is subject to a speed limit review and the normal consultative and legal processes.

The detailed design should be completed in time to implement the changes next Financial Year. However the implementation is subject to availability of funding and the relative priority of this site compared to other casualty sites elsewhere in the County.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further queries or concerns on this.

Thanks, Nick

Yours sincerely,

Good Afternoon,
Thank you for the email. As you are aware the lamp posts are being replaced In the area. The flashing sign is owned by the police and is being in the process of being located to another part of the Shepperton. I know the Council have access some of theses signs and not sure if there is funding for one to be installed in the village. As local officer we will carry on speed watch checks in the area.
Many thanks

Dear Colin, and copied to Dick and Richard,
Following the Charlton Village residents association AGM where you were present, and discussed the 30mph flashing sign/recorder outside the Harrow pub in Charlton Village, the cou to council's contractor Skanska has replaced all the lamp posts. During this process, our village has lost this illuminated 30mph sign. I am aware that Skanska has not replaced these signs, as required, in the past.
Cllr.Walsh recommended I informed you of it first.
Hope it can be relocated.
Thanks
Best regards

Richard,
As indicated in my previous email there are no formal HGV restrictions in that area that we can enforce. I recall having a conversation with you during discussions on road safety at the school in Squires Bridge Road about HGV's and I think you mentioned that there may be some restrictions on HGV movements through planning conditions. Of course these are no formal restrictions, that are signed and accompanied with the required Traffic Regulation Orders and so the police cannot enforce these. If they are indeed in place then enforcement would be the responsibility of the local Planning Authority.
Regards,
Graham

Michelle/ Dawn,
Please see the below message regarding speeding HGV's in Charlton Village.
This route is on the speed management plan so can enforcement be carried out. With regard to any HGV restriction, it is my understanding that there are none in place.
Regards,
Graham

Dear X,
I am sorry you encountered speeding lorries through Charlton Village which of course is 30 mph.
I have copied in Surrey's planning department to clarify what planning restrictions are in place on SITA lorries and there routing and Graham Cannon from the police traffic unit who can advise what can be done with the reg. numbers.
I will revert.
Best regards

To discuss / action
I was trying to get out of Hetherington onto the main road this morning about 9.30am when a great big lorry with an industrial size skip on the back thundered down the road. I followed him down to the tip. He must have been doing over 40mph because I had to do that speed to keep up with him over the bridge. Is there any way we can check whether he’s on normal Charlton Lane Waste business or on Eco Park Construction business? Reg no
HV52 XLO. Then when I was coming back through the Village 10 minutes later a Norman Haulage HGV reg M4 NRH was heading south at over the speed limit (I don’t know if he was heading for the Waste Centre because I would have had to turn round again to follow him). Anyway the point is that’s 2 HGVs at speed in the space of 10 minutes. I understood that HGVs were restricted through Charlton Village?

Hi Richard,

Further to our recent meeting, here are my comments on the issues raised in Charlton Village:

1) Who owns the ditches alongside the junction of Charlton Road, New Road, and Charlton Lane?

I understand that the Highway boundary is defined by the wooden fence. The various ditches are on the road side of the fence, so I believe them to be part of the Public Highway. These ditches have been cleared recently and therefore should be in good condition.

2) Who deals with ragwort?

Spelthorne Borough Council.
