Ashington Town Council welcomes the continued progress on our town centre transformation, as detailed in the recent announcement from Northumberland County Council.
We’re delighted that the Portland Park cinema and restaurant development is moving forward this autumn, bringing REEL Cinemas’ exciting leisure offer to our community. The completion of public realm improvements around Lintonville Terrace and the new Memorial Garden will also enhance our town centre experience.
Speed Monitoring
The Town Council purchased movable Speed Indicator Devices (SID) in 2018 with two aims; firstly, to educate drivers of speed limits and remind them not to speed, and secondly to be able to collect reliable speed data to quantify speeding issues. SIDs have been proven to be effective at enforcing speed limits as many drivers don’t realise, they are going too fast.
The SID displays the speed a driver is driving (up to a limit to discourage people trying to see how high they can go) and a message to slow down. It is mounted on lamp columns or street signs, and we work with Northumberland County Councils Highways to determine suitable locations.
