Faulty Speed Camera, 3rd May
Good afternoon,
First of all, I would really like to say that getting to this point (where writing this message) took ages, the whole process is so unbelievable hard and made to give up before getting here, so not helpful at all! This is not a way of helping people, but just for them to give up when trying to report an issue! Shameful!
WHAT IS WRONG!? The speed camera on A23, Brighton Road, towards Gatwick, after passing Tesco (on the left side)! THAT CAMERA THAT FLASHES VEHICLES DRIVING 30MPH AND LOWER IN A 30MPH ZONE! STOP ROBBING PEOPLE! You should be shame! People driving 25 and less keep getting flashed by that speed camera supposed to flash 30/33 MPH above! That’s way too greedy authorities trying to steal peoples money! STOP IT!
I have footage & photos/screenshots from my professional camera fitted on my car driving 26MPH at 2AM and the above mentioned speed camera on a 30MPH flashed me WHAT FOR!? And other 2 cars that were about 200 m behind me the same, after seeing me being flashed!? AND NO WAY TO REPORT THIS ISSUE!?
This is horrendous what’s going on and happening! I HOPE I WON’T GET A FINE AS I’M GONNA PUBLISH THIS ALL OVER AND SUE ALL GREEDY RESPONSABLE AUTHORITIES AND OTHERS WILL FOLLOW ME I PROMISE!
Thank you!

Roadworks causing delays, 2nd April
The roadworks sign says roadworks finish at 5pm each day. Well at 6.20pm they were still there but no sign of anyone doing any work and there was a 20 minute queue of traffic going back along pampisford road.... if the road works are there for the extent of the works why is there a time on all of the signage?! And why hasn't the roundabout jist before the road works also been set up with traffic lights?! When the light turns green no one can go, due the build up of traffic coming from the right on the roundabout! Very poor signage and traffic management here.

It’s too much now, they are keep on parking on the pavement blocking access to property and causing nuisance to pedestrians over a year . The law and Croydon website also clearly states Don't park on the pavement or verge Unless there are clear signs stating you can. Please note there is no sign on our street that you can park on pavement at all Very shocking that no action is taken still against it.
