Roy Darch

/in /by

Members of Astley and Dunley Parish Council are saddened to  hear of the death of Roy Darch on July 7th.

Roy had, for many years,  been a stalwart member  of  the parish council having been co-opted in June 1995 and remaining very active until stepping down in 2018.

His knowledge  was always held in high regard and the advice and support offered to everyone was gratefully accepted.  Having many capabilities, he will no doubt be particularly remembered for the rebuilding of the letter box at Cottons Corner – a job very well carried out.

We know his passing will not only be a great loss to his family but also to all friends and colleagues who knew him.

NEWS: AVERAGE SPEED CAMERAS ARE COMING TO WEST MERCIA

/in /by
NEWS: AVERAGE SPEED CAMERAS ARE COMING TO WEST MERCIA
Work has begun to install the first set of average speed cameras in West Mercia this week.
Work is underway to start installation of the next generation cameras along the 50mph stretch of the A449 from Hartlebury to Ombersley, in Worcestershire to reduce speeds, improve safety and reduce the number of people killed or seriously injured.
The project is utilising the latest technology and is the first of its kind to operate within West Mercia. The system will aim to influence and change driver behaviour so that the speed limit is adhered to throughout the whole section of the route by enforcing an average speed 24 hours of the day.
The project is a partnership between West Mercia Police, Worcestershire County Council and leading speed technology firm Jenoptik and has been made possible through funding from West Mercia Police & Crime Commissioner Road Safety fund.
Speeding, as well as inappropriate speed can have a devastating impact on the safety of road users, increasing the risk of a collision and the severity of the consequences. During the past three years in West Mercia 3 people have been killed on the 50mph section of the A449 with a further 4 people suffering serious injuries. Speeding or inappropriate speed was noted in the majority of incidents as a contributory factor.
T/Superintendent Gareth Morgan, West Mercia Police comments;
“The installation of these cameras is part of our efforts to improving safety on the A449 and the opportunity to use new technology to combat this is an exciting move for us.
There are many families that unfortunately know far too well the devastating consequences that speeding and collisions can lead to.”
He continues-
“Reducing the number of people killed or seriously injured on our roads is our priority and reducing the speed that people travel is a key part of this. Apart from the obvious consequences if you are involved in a collision, if prosecuted for speeding, the minimum penalty is a £100 fine and 3 penalty points. You could be disqualified from driving if you build up 12 or more penalty points within a period of 3 years”.
PCC John Campion says: “Too many people die or are seriously injured on our roads. Road safety continues to be at the heart of my work as Commissioner with my focus being on tackling inappropriate speed and driver behaviour. Schemes such as this are a vital tool to ensure we reduce the life changing impact of poor driver behaviour on our roads.”
Councillor Tony Miller, Worcestershire County Council says; As a newly elected County Councillor for this area I welcome this new initiative. Speed is a concern that is often raised by my local constituents so it is great that we can use this technology to try and reduce speeds along this stretch of the A449 and in turn reduce the number of people killed or seriously injured.
Jon Fraser, Worcestershire County Council Highways says; “We are pleased to be able to work alongside West Mercia Police in supporting the use of this technology. I am confident that the new average speed system for this stretch of the A449 will go a long way in making the road a lot safer for all road users”.
Geoff Collins, a Director at Jenoptik Traffic Solution says; “We are pleased to be providing the enforcement technology that will help to make the A449 a safer road. Having installed more than 200 SPECS schemes to date, Jenoptik are confident that road users and residents alike will soon be seeing the benefits of safe and smooth traffic flows”.
Installation work will be taking place throughout the summer with the cameras due to go live in September. During this time existing speed enforcement cameras and mobile vans will be still be in operation.
– Ongoing evaluation will be taking place and will inform future decisions over how this technology can be used in other areas of West Mercia.
