There has been an increase in rat-running traffic in these two roads and the Council has undertaken a study, which MESS has supported (click here). For North Worple Way the study has recommended ‘intervention’ at two locations, for which the Council invited comments by 19 Nov 2023 and MESS responded. The proposed intervention at Avondale Road – no entry towards the west except for permit holders – was approved at the Council’s Transport Committee on 27 Feb 2024.

For South Worple Way there have been no such recommendations; instead there are now traffic restrictions in Vernon Road during school arrival hours which in theory have put a stop to this rat run in peak hours, and these restrictions could become stronger (and possibly longer?) once made permanent. The Council invited comments on these trial restrictions by 24 Nov 2023 and MESS responded. The proposal to make the traffic restrictions in Vernon Road permanent was approved by the Council’s Transport Committee on 27 Feb 2024.
