As a result of our Residents Drop-In session, reports of speeding were received, mainly on Eden Grove, Dorian Road, Keys Avenue and Highbury Grove and Filton Road.

We have seen a number of vehicles still breaching the 'NO RIGHT TURNS' rule on Filton Road, this is extremely dangerous and can cause accidents to both pedestrians and other vehicles.

All roads heading outbound from the city centre between Doone Road and Eden Grove along Filton Road are "No Right Turn’s". There are signs along the road indicating these restrictions.
The local policing team continue to,  and have been conducting patrols in this location and talking to people in relation to any breaches, a few motorists have been issued Traffic Offence Reports for these offences.
We have also received reports of vehicles still diving in excess of the speed limit on certain roads in the area, if you wish to have more information on Community Speed Watch Groups, please follow the link below.

We have recently had an increased number of drivers in and around Horfield driving under the influence of drugs, specifically Cannabis. We would like to remind the public that driving under the influence of drugs is illegal and greatly increases your chances of seriously harming yourself or others. This is a serious criminal offence and we are dealing with each individual very robustly.

Continued proactive patrols are taking place in the area, targeting vehicles in relation to drug and drink drivers, over the past few months a number of vehicles have been stopped and roadside drink and drug testing has been conducted, this has resulted in a number of persons failing these tests.
Offenders have been dealt with robustly and are awaiting court appearances.
