HGVs causing great concern

After a day when Heavy Goods Vehicles managed to block the village on several occasions, mounted pavements and caused numerous traffic jams, a heartfelt comment about the A525 has come into www.audlem.org from a resident who lives at the western end of Audlem: "Here at the bottom end of the village, we still have a concern about the narrow path that leads back up to the village. This has been an on-going problem for many years but after living here for over four years (and what a great place it is after living in the middle of a city), it is a concern for people using the path and the drag which is caused by the HGVs. This is very dangerous for young and old alike. I would like to say at this point that the Parish Council has worked hard to try and put this problem right but it is so close to someone being killed."

Judging by the way the HGVs were mounting pavements and forcing traffic aside with impunity yesterday, it is easy to understand the concern.
