Residents in Radcliffe-on-Trent say the village is 'not as bad as other places’ for speeding despite police reports of concerns. Nottinghamshire police shared that they have been conducting speed checks and overnight patrols in three areas in Rushcliffe to combat speeding and anti-social behaviour.
In response to the Nottinghamshire Police Rushcliffe team's tweet about the patrols, locals highlighted Wilford Road and Main Road in Radcliffe-on-Trent as problem spots. However, some residents in the area said they haven’t noticed the speeding issues and say ‘it’s not as bad as other places’.
David Bunce told Nottinghamshire Live that you occasionally see people racing but it’s not that bad. The 56-year-old said: “It is now and again - people racing. More often up Shelford Road. It’s not a pandemic of youths driving at night. Down there’s a speed camera, you’ve got zebra crossings. It’s not as bad as other places.”
