The Grove, Haddenham Proposed 30mph Speed Limit
Overview
Buckinghamshire Highways are proposing to introduce a 30mph speed limit throughout The Grove development in Haddenham. This will be aimed at facilitating a safe passage, and to prevent any danger arising to all road users.
We are asking you for your views on this proposal.
Background
The Grove is a new housing development located in Haddenham, bordered and linked to Stanbridge Road to the east and Aston Road to the south, as shown in Figure 1 below:

This development consists of over 300 two, three, four and five bedroom homes. There are a variety of nearby schooling opportunites and playgrounds, providing a pull to the area for young families, increasing the number of young children to the area. Some concerns have been raised regarding anti-social speeding in the area.
There is some street lighting present across the development, however the current arrangement of lighting columns does not automatically restrict the road to 30mph. Therefore, a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) is required to impose a 30mph speed limit upon these residential roads.
What we are Proposing
We are proposing to implement a 30mph speed limit order with the addition of repeater signs along the following roads:
Affected Roads | Proposed Restriction |
---|---|
Alderson Way |
Introduce a 30mph Speed Limit |
Barn Owl Lane | |
Burch Mews | |
Cricketers Way | |
Hedgehog Way | |
Ivin Close | |
Lapwing Mews | |
Maslin Elms | |
Nicholson Road | |
Paine Close | |
Rookery Piece | |
Rose Meadow | |
Skylark Close | |
Thompson Mews | |
Willoughby Lane |
The implementation of the TRO will to assist in preventing the likelihood of any danger arising to pedestrians or other road users. It will also facilitate a safe passage on the road for any class of traffic, including pedestrians. Furthermore, the TRO should preserve the amenities of the area through which the road runs.
