Representation Summary:

All the roads entering Alpington and Bergh Apton are single track at some point or in whole. The volumes are traffic into Alpington via the Slad are damaging the verges and making dangerous places for pedestrians to walk from Yelverton in Alpington. In January ’23 there were an average of 464 vehicles coming into the village each day, equating to nearly 29,000 movements in and out of the village along Church Road in a month. This is a fair representation of other months captured in the speed camera data and means there are approximately 350,000 vehicle movements annually.

Change suggested by respondent:

The village cannot cope with more traffic. The suggested "improvements" are inadequate and not going to help in any way.
