As you may be aware, we’ve been fighting for over 10 years for this crossing to be made safe as there have been multiple near misses. The site has a zebra crossing on a dual carriageway – the only one in the whole of Hertfordshire.
Hertfordshire County Council has created a detailed Briefing Note with three interim measures which we believe have been completed – good news! We are now awaiting a further investigation by the Highway Service for a longer term solution. Funding opportunities will be sought by HCC Officers and Local County Councillors. Watch this space!
