Councillor and Whitewell resident meet Road Service over traffic-calming measures


Sinn Féin councillor Tierna Cunningham along with Whitewell Road residents has met with staff from the Road Service to discuss possible traffic calming measures in the area.
Cllr Cunningham described the meeting as "positive" and she congratulated residents on their desire to make the area safer.
The meeting took place to see what action could be taken to improve safety on the busy road as residents of Floral and upper Whitewell have long called for action to be taken to reduce the speed of drivers.
"The meeting we had was very positive and hopefully we will see a good outcome," said the Sinn Féin Councillor.
"The residents who came out to meet with the Road Service have to be commended for the way they articulated their views and got their point across. It is great to see the empowerment going on in the area."
The Road Service will begin a survey to assess whether traffic-calming measures are needed on the road.
