VIGILANTES angry at a lack of safety measures have taken matters into their own hands. They’ve drawn road markings near a junction in Abbey Barn Road, High Wycombe, in an effort to slow down drivers.The work has been welcomed by residents who say the stretch is notorious for collisions and speeding motorists.They are making a statement that the county needs to pick up. Residents say the junction, which links Abbey Barn Road to Wycombe retail park, has seen up to five collisions recently. An oil spillage was even caused after a car ploughed into a telegraph pole.The junction faces Marsh First School and there are fears children could be hit in an accident.
Cllr Trevor Snaith is in discussion with Bucks County Council and is pressing for action to resolve the issues before we have a major accident.
