Vehicle Activated Speed Sign set to wrong limit

Reported via desktop in the Dirty signs category anonymously at 15:09, Mon 18 August 2025

Sent to Stoke Mandeville Parish Council 19 hours, 48 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 8041384.

The recently installed Vehicle Activated Speed Sign at this position appears to be set to 30 limit, for instance today I passed it at 35 and it displayed my speed in amber with a grouchy face. The limit at the position is 40pmh so should show my speed in green with a smily face (seems to do this for speed less that 30)

Updates

  • This has been passed to the Highway Officer to investigate, they will carry out an inspection within the next 10 working days.

    All our roads are subject to safety inspections, and this includes identifying any road signs that are badly damaged or degraded so we may already have a job raised to resolve it, if this is the case we will update you that it is a duplicate job/enquiry.

    If we were not aware of this issue, we will update you on what action will be taken, this may include adding the road markings to a package of works for the location to be completed at a later date.

    There may also be occasions when the issue reported will not be repaired as it has been classified as a minor defect and does not pose any risk to either the safety or the integrity of the highway, these are called minimum recording levels as specified in our Highways Safety Inspection Policy in these cases no action will be taken.
