I AM sick and tired of the cars whizzing past my house on their way to the Avon Way crossroads and I was very pleased to learn that the council intends to stop cars from turning into Slade Road from Nore Road.

I personally would like to see the plans go further and block off the junction altogether. However, this is a good first step. Cars using our road as a rat run must be stopped from doing so. They should stick to the main roads, not use residential streets just to save a couple of minutes on their journey time. Think of all the little children that live in this road, - their safety is most important - come and see the speeding, ignorant, careless drivers.
