If you live, work, shop, attend school or church, or even simply visit here, you know that speeding on our streets is OUT OF CONTROL!

OUR MISSION

Advocating for a Safer Community

Welcome to Frant Road Safety – a community-led initiative dedicated to implementing traffic calming measures to transform Frant Road, and its surrounding streets, into a safer place for everyone.

Nestled in the heart of Tunbridge Wells, Frant Road is more than just a thoroughfare; it's where our children wait for their school bus, or walk to school, where our families live, and where our local businesses thrive.

 

Yet, recent times have seen a disturbing rise in traffic-related incidents.

Together, we can,
and must, change this!

Take Action

Our campaign was born from concern and unity within our community regarding speeding that is ruining our quality of life.

Following a series of accidents and close calls, exacerbated by increased traffic and speeding vehicles, we knew it was time to act.

Frant Road, home to schools, churches, and businesses, should be a safe haven, not a hazard.

We're here to ensure it becomes just that!

Safety for All 

We're rallying for essential traffic calming measures on Frant Road and surrounding streets to improve safety and preserve the residential character of our community. We’re calling on Tunbridge Wells Council and Kent County Council to assess and implement effective solutions to address the traffic concerns impacting our area.


These changes are crucial to protect our children, pedestrians, and elderly residents and to maintain the safe, peaceful nature of our neighborhood. Every voice helps strengthen our call for action—join us in making a difference.
