Dangerous High Speeds
Sent to Hackney Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7986398.
I live at 39 Cassland Road. We are witnessing, on a daily basis high speeds on that section of Cassland Road and also on Poole Road. Speeds can be up to 60mph. It is so dangerous and one day someone will be injured or killed.

Dear Karen Harries,
Thank you for reaching out to us with your concerns about vehicle speeds on Cassland Road and Poole Road.
We've reviewed the recent traffic survey data, which confirm that speeds are indeed an issue on Cassland Road in these areas. We recognise the serious risks this creates, especially for pedestrians and vulnerable road users, and we are committed to addressing these concerns.
While there isn't a specific scheme in place for these roads right now, I can confirm that Cassland Road and Poole Road are part of a broader area study. As part of this initiative, we will carefully assess and consider potential interventions for the area including Cassland Road and Poole Road, with the goal of implementing effective measures to improve safety for everyone.
Your comments are valuable and will help inform our ongoing assessment. Should any formal consultation regarding traffic management measures be planned for the area, we will ensure the community is kept informed and engaged throughout the process.
Thank you again for bringing this important matter to our attention.
