Speed of traffic Ripponden Road – Grains Bar.
We have been asking for measures to be taken to tackle speeding traffic in the Grains Bar area for some years now. Some works have been done to create the pedestrian traffic island and to also improve safety to the pavement around the Toll House.
Despite repeated requests the area does not qualify for a speed camera, however, I am pleased to report there will shortly be two VAS (vehicle activated signs) placed as described in the pictures above which hopefully will have an impact on speeding traffic.
It’s a terrible junction to turn right at the top of buckstones Road, look left, look right, pull out and the speeding vehicles are right on you from the right side. Requires serious attention , I have witnessed bad collisions here in the past. Sadly, those that speed here will pay no attention to VAS signage.
