PEOPLE travelling up to 73mph have been recorded on a 30mph road in Broadway.

Broadway Parish Council has been monitoring car speeds on Pound Road, between Barrington Hill and Horton, and said that the speeds remain a “significant problem”.

The average speed in April was found to be 38mph and that has now risen to 39mph.

A council spokesman said: “Speeding along Broadway Road through the village is also a major concern and measurements along this route will be made in the future.”
