The Council has now sent its formal letter to Rene Hidding, the Minister for Infrastructure, for consideration by the Dept of State Growth. The full letter is available here. It contains additional data and useful arguments.
It is time now for as many people as possible to contact the Minister and other Members of the House of Assembly for Denison, to apply as much pressure as possible for a positive response to the Council's approach.
PLEASE WRITE A LETTER OR EMAIL OR MAKE A PHONE CALL THIS WEEK.
Ask the Minister or your MP to support the speed limit reduction, and offer to meet them onsite so that you can show them the issues of concern.
