News

The Unitary Councillor and Parish Council  are having reports of some very poor and dangerous driving in the area. These include people breaking the speed limit and overtaking on double white lines.  There have been a number of reports on both the A490 between Chirbury and Churchstoke – particularly around the Marrington Hall turning – and also on the B4386 near the turnings to Aston Pigott and Rogers. Both these stretches of road have concealed turnings and dips in the road – hence their dangerous nature. Accidents do happen on both roads and are sometimes serious. The A488 also suffers from dangerous drivers.

Our local police say:

If any residents do witness dangerous driving we have a online form that can be filled out - https://www.westmercia.police.uk/article/6617/Allegation-of-Bad-Driving-Form -

If we have any local reports of particular vehicles, particularly a vehicle using that stretch on a regular basis, we (local team from Bishops Castle) will target and visit them.
