Community Speed Watch

Published: 09 December 2025

Following a recent meeting about concerns of speeding vehicles throughout the village, by both residents and people visiting or passing through, a Speedwatch group has been set up to gather data on vehicle speeds. No changes in speed limits will be considered by Dorset Council without data gathered by the group. All of the volunteers have concerns about the speed of vehicles within some areas of the village and want everyone to feel safe when walking around, crossing roads etc. and knowing that their children can play safely around the village.

Hopefully this will be achieved through education and careful consideration of their actions by individuals, rather than new restrictions. Our Speedwatch group will appreciate your support while they gather the data. They have everyone's safety in mind.
