THREE councillors at Warrington are demanding road safety measures at an accident blackspot following the most recent crash.
Just two weeks after a crash barrier in Warrington Road, Culcheth was repaired, it has been damaged again by a vehicle running into it.
Now Culcheth, Glazebury and Croft councillors Keith Bland, Sue Bland and Les Hoyle are calling for urgent action.
The barrier, next to the Thai Paragon restaurant, has been damaged on numerous occasions.
Just two weeks ago, when the last repairs were completed, a chevron was placed on it as a traffic calming measure.
Cllr Keith Bland said: “Unfortunately the chevron didn’t work so we are asking for some proper traffic calming to be put on the road urgently before and on the bend.
“Our concerns are that the pavement which is protected by the barrier is used by elderly people going to the shops and young families taking their children to the local school. So it is very important that this work is carried out urgently before someone receives a serious injury.”
