## Resource

Dr. Jeevun Sandher is sounding the alarm on Ashby Road, where years of resident complaints over noise, speeding, and dangerous gatherings have led to a deadly crash—and now, a public consultation to push for urgent safety upgrades. With fluctuating speed limits and a history of collisions—including one fatal in 2020—local leaders are being pressured to act. Though mobile cameras are in use, fixed ones aren’t yet approved due to data thresholds, but police say speeding is rampant. With National Highways, councils, and police all involved, Dr. Sandher is demanding immediate action before another tragedy strikes.
