Three local surveys have been conducted recently.
Only one of the three is eligible for Community Speed Watch.
Traffic Speed Survey result Hilperton Drive, Hilperton (50mph Speed Limit) - Near Helpswell Road
The results of the survey for the area of Hilperton Drive are provided below.
The survey was carried out between 23/01/2017 and 02/02/2017. A total of 56,214 vehicles were checked. The 85th percentile was 47.4mph (the 85th percentile is the speed at which 85% of the traffic is travelling at or below). The average speed was 42.5mph.
Traffic Speed Survey result Leap Gate, Trowbridge (40mph Speed Limit) - South of Painters Mead
The results of the survey for the area of Leap Gate are provided below.
The survey was carried out between 24/01/2017 and 02/02/2017. A total of 47,493 vehicles were checked. The 85th percentile was 40.3mph (the 85th percentile is the speed at which 85% of the traffic is travelling at or below). The average speed was 35.9mph.
Traffic Speed Survey result Leap Gate, Trowbridge (30mph Speed Limit) - North of Soprano Way
The results of the survey for the area of Leap Gate are provided below.
The survey was carried out between 24/01/2017 and 02/02/2017. A total of 43,776 vehicles were checked. The 85th percentile was 35.8mph (the 85th percentile is the speed at which 85% of the traffic is travelling at or below). The average speed was 31.1mph.
In a 30mph speed limit the following criteria will be applied;
30 to 35mph 85th percentile = No Further Action (NFA)
35.1 to 42 mph 85th percentile = eligible for Community Speed Watch
Over 42 mph 85th percentile = Subject to Police enforcement
Therefore the last of these sites is eligible for CSW. As this area is not in Hilperton Division I am sure that their Wiltshire Councillor will assist them.
