Following a previous request submitted by the Parish Council in 2017 involving this length of Road a referral had been made to the Safety Compliance Action Review Forum (SCARF).

(b)      that further traffic speed monitoring be carried out prior to and following the introduction of new signage for report to a future meeting of this Committee.
