Roz, I totally agree. Although I have sympathy for those living opposite Sainsbury's with the drills etc. going on, Dartmouth Road is taking the brunt of the heavy traffic with all the arctics etc. which are driving far too fast and causing our whole building to shake.

During 'rush hours' (goodness knows what it will be like when the schools go back) when there are huge jams of static road traffic, you have either got bus passengers trying to peer through your windows, or you have got the 'music merchants' who have built a car shell arond their speakers!

Once the road quietens down we have to put up with speeding motorists including the large lorries. Do you think it would be a good idea to have a temporary traffic measure put in Dartmouth Road for the rest of the duration of the works (perhaps between 11.00pm and 05.30hrs?) to slow down the arctics - bearing in mind we only had our new gas/water(?) mains put in end of last year and the heavy traffic is probably disturbing it all (i.e. come cold months again it may crack!?!) - Happy to contact the Council if you think worthwhile.
