The Monxton Traffic Steering Group have now had two meetings. Our first meeting was to brainstorm a variety of ideas and suggestions. Our second meeting was to take the most important and achievable ideas and put them on a map for TVBC to implement. Some of the suggestions will take 8-12 weeks to implement, so we hope to have some improvements in the village by Christmas. Other suggestions, such as speed limits, require a Traffic Regulation Order which will take a couple of years.

Monxton Traffic Calming Measures

The measures we hope (not guaranteed) to introduce are:

• Extend the 30mph limits on Green Lane and Broad Road
• Introduce a 40mph limit approaching Monxton from Grateley, from about the cricket pavilion
• Add village ‘entrance gates’ (design TBC) on all roads into the village
• Horse & rider signs on Broad Road
• Introducing a 40mph speed limit along Broad Road, at least to the railway bridge
• ‘Slow’ road markings painted on the roads in suitable locations
• Signs to mark sharp corners at the Broad Road railway bridge and by Monxton Manor
• White lines to visually ‘narrow’ the road in some locations
• ‘Unsuitable for Long Vehicles’ sign at the entrance to Chalkpit Lane from the High Street end
• ‘Unsuitable for HGV’ signs at the traffic lights and the Army HQ roundabout
• Aim to have a 20mph speed limit along the High Street
