Safety warning

I’m writing about the growing issue surrounding Norfolk Drive roadway and surrounds. As a resident of two years on Norfolk Drive I as many others have noticed an increase in antisocial behaviour in terms of driving. Cars travelling up to and in excess of 100km an hour are now not uncommon for this road. A cycle lane, retirement village, families and schools interact with this road. Other roads and schools have had traffic management initiatives implemented on or near them by the council. If we don’t have the resources to police this road effectively the council needs to step up before people start getting killed.
