Community safety campaign launched as 'enough is enough'

A community safety campaign has been launched after a young girl lost her life on a "dangerous" road.

Lexi McDavid was hit by a white Mercedes van as she got off a bus on Princess Drive on June 7. Emergency services rushed to the scene at around 3.30pm, but the 12-year-old later died in hospital.

Now, residents say "enough is enough" and demand action be taken to make roads safer for pedestrians, especially children. Jimmy Dempsey told the ECHO he would like to see the safety campaign in memory of Lexi, which would see posters on the back of buses warning road users to "slow down" as children are crossing.
