A Herefordshire village is set to receive almost £3,000 to help the local council tackle speeding drivers. Lyonshall Parish Council took their concerns about speeding through the village, near Kington in north Herefordshire, to the West Mercia police and crime commissioner John Campion. After speaking with him directly, the council will be given £2,675 for a new speed indicator device for the village, within an area identified by councillors as a speeding hotspot. The new device will provide a visible speed deterrent to motorists, as well as providing greater reassurance and an increased feeling of safety to residents. John Campion said: “Through engaging with the public, road safety is a concern I hear all too often from people across West Mercia. As commissioner, I promised to help tackle the issue of speeding and work with communities to make our roads safer.
