I see that the stretch of road from what was the Audi garage near the college on Winwick Road to the island just before Birchwood expressway is now 20mph over its full length!!!!!!
I am thinking of setting up a business with men carrying red flags to walk in front of cars to keep their speed down and announce their presence to others.
Do you think it will catch on??

it is 30mph.My night driver got down for it last year.
she should get 3 points/offence and a fine/offence

I got caught 3 times in one day on the A556 at Northwich. Signs clearly show 50mph, but no mention of it being 40 for HGV'S! (which i was driving)
Anyway i sent in covering(creeping) letter along with my licence to DVLA explaining the situation and to my surprise my licence come back with only 3 points on it and a fine.

I have a friend who got caught on that camera recently (36 in a 30)...She had (and took) the option of a Speed Awareness course, which meant she managed to avoid the points on her licence, though the cost of the course is similar to the fine.

I doubt though that your friend will get such an option having committed the crime 3 times....

Yes, the most bizarre piece of speed management I have ever seen, considering you can still do 30mph down Alder Lane (arguably more in need of a speed reduction than Long Lane) which can be used as a detour for the same journey...
