I used to live in Rectory Road and now I live in Belstead Avenue. When I was moving I had to make the journey between the two roads a lot and I was always amazed at how hard it was to get across the road at Luther Road and Station Street.
Now I’m an able bodied man in my thirties and can look after myself. However with both Hillside Primary School and Stoke High School, let alone the Sure Start centre either in Belstead Avenue or Maidenhall Approach there are a lot of children who are from the area around Rectory Road who are expected to cross this road every day. Many of these children are very young.
If we want to encourage walking and cut down on the potential for accidents then we need to get a crossing at the part of the road where Luther Road and Station Street meet.
