Drivers using main roads in Brigg are warned about their speed by 'flashing' signs outlining if they are complying with the 30mph limit.
Similar signs to those in place on Brigg's Wrawby Road (A18) and Bigby High Road (A1084) are now planned in neighbouring Wrawby, supported by a community grant from North Lincolnshire Council.
The local highway authority has earmarked £3,000 for 'flashing' speed signs on Melton Road (A18) and Barton Road (B1206) within the village.
Wrawby Parish Council submitted the successful application and is contributing £3,000+ in "match funding" for this project.
A North Lincolnshire authority officer's report about the purchase and installation explained it was an attempt to reduce the number of drivers exceeding the speed limit through the village.
"NLC monitoring figures recorded an average of 396 offending vehicles per day in September 2020 and 488 in July 2021," the report said.
Brigg's 'flashing' signs to deter speeding were supported by our Town Council and have been in place for many months as a welcome drive to improve road safety.
Safer Roads Humber will have speed cameras operating on the A18 in Melton Ross today (Friday, August 19).
