Speed survey – Moor road

Following complaints from residents I asked that speed monitoring was carried out-

Please see the speed data attached from the survey carried out on Moor Road, in-between Moor Grange & Ferndene Hospital.

A summary of the data is included in the smaller table..

I appreciate the print is small, if you can not read the data in full & are interested in seeing further please e mail me and I will try to send you the data in a bigger format.

For information, the 85th percentile is that speed at which 85% of vehicles are travelling or less, while the remaining 15% of vehicles will be travelling above that speed.  

Within a 30mph speed limit, the 85th percentile is required to be a minimum of 35mph for enforcement to be considered by the police. 

This data will be sent to the Police for their information and consideration.

Occasionally one or more vehicles are recorded at travelling at high speeds, this is normal- Emergency services vehicles are the usual reason.

A further speed survey took place following other residents complaints elsewhere on Moor road near the High School earlier this year CLICK HERE
