Speeding vehicles in Rusthall (4)

In a previous post I expressed doubts concerning the value of speed indicators being installed on Lower Green Road in Rusthall.  Walking down the said road today I was accosted by a resident who expressed the opinion that the indicators 'will be a waste of time and money'.  I concur. 

The resident complained that the parish council had not consulted people living in Lower Green Road about the idea of installing the speed indicators, nor on the locations for the devices. The cost of the two indicators is circa £8,000 and coming from Kent County Council and not Rusthall Parish Council, but it is public money nonetheless that is being squandered.

The need is for road narrowing and giving precedence to traffic in one direction.
