Provide a controlled crossing point on the A3259 at the bottom of Maidenbrook Lane

The A3259 is a difficult road to cross, however with the advent of the roadworks on Toneway it has now become dangerous to cross.  The residents living within Cheddon Fitzpaine and surrounding areas are being subjected to extremely high traffic flows with traffic not obeying speed limits.

There is currently no controlled crossing point serving the lower end of Cheddon Fitzpaine to enable walking towards Monkton Heathfield.

With further development forthcoming in the area even after the Toneway roadworks cease the crossing point will be necessary.

it is not reasonable to provide a hidden, unlit, footpath through a field where the costs are expected to be met by local parishioners, this is not a solution, nor is it a safe route.

Please install a temporary system with immediate effect and look to provide a permanent controlled crossing when road space is allowed to be booked again on the A3259.
