PORT Sunlight Trust has noticed an increasing issue with speeding in the village.

To effectively reduce the problem the trust would like to set up a community speedwatch initiative in partnership with the neighbourhood policing team.

Speedwatch is a locally-driven initiative where members of the community join together with the support of the police to monitor speeds of vehicles using radar guns.

Vehicles exceeding the speed limit are referred to the police with the aim of educating drivers to reduce their speeds.

Volunteers will receive appropriate training and will be supported by the neighbourhood policing team staff in their work.

We cannot rectify this issue without determining where and when the worst cases are occurring in the village, so we do desperately need your help in carrying out this scheme.

Anyone who is interested in taking part in the new year, whether you can dedicate an hour or 20 of your time, please contact the Conservation Adviser Lizzie Heywood on 0151 644 4813 or email at e.heywood@portsunlightvillage.

Together we will tackle this issue.
