Resurface Summerhill Rd

Summerhill Road is badly potholed and local councillors have been calling for resurfacing to be carried out for years. The damage done to vehicles, as well as the danger it poses for cyclists and motorcyclists, on such a busy stretch of road serving Gwersyllt and Summerhill must be costing thousands in compensation claims for the council.

Roads elsewhere in the borough been resurfaced to a good standard that weren't as bad as Summerhill Road, so where's the consistency? We challenge any officer or councillor to travel that road and say the road surface is adequate.

People locally are frustrated by council inaction. We understand money is tight, there has to be a level-playing field when it comes to resurfacing roads and people in Gwersyllt don't feel that applies to this road.

Please sign the petition so that Cllr Annette Davies, who represents Gwersyllt West, can take it to Wrexham Council's lead member responsible for Highways and the Chief Environment Officer.

PETITION / DEISEB

We, the undersigned, call for the resurfacing of Summerhill Road in the interest of road safety for cyclists and motorcyclists as well as damage to vehicles and potential injury to motorists.

Rydym ni, yr isod, yn galw am wyneb newydd i Ffordd Brynhyfryd er mwyn diogelu defnyddwyr beics a motobeics, yn ogystal â lleihau'r niwed i foduron a niwed potensial i fodurwyr.

The road is disgusting, and dangerous in the day never mind in the dark when I travel home from work.

I would support to get the road repaired.

However any risk assessment needs to also consider what steps can be introduced to protect those pedestrians walking along the road from the Pendine Nursing home towards Gwersyllt.

The current absence of any footpath means that they are at real risk.

If nothing else the current state of the roads means that drivers have to slow down.

I would therefore urge as part of any scheme until a footpath can be built the whole stretch of road from the Sainsburys roundabout to Griffiths lane be the subject of a 30 mile an hour speed limit.

The amount of council tax we pay and this road has been horrendous for months. It’s a joke!

My wife is in long term care in Pending Highfields, and as if that is not bad enough, I have to suffer this disgrace of a road twice every day.

Driving along Summerhill road is a real bone shaker. It is so dangerous and there have been many near misses where drivers have gone onto the other side of the road to avoid the pot holes and other cars have travelled around the bend not expecting to see a car coming towards them on the wrong side of the road. It can only be described as a third world dirt track. Desperately in need of a full resurfacing before someone gets killed or injured.

Totally unacceptable road condition – damage caused to mine and other vehicles.

If a serious or even fatal accident occurs, who within the council will be responsible?

Summerhill road and also main bus route through Pendine way is becoming very dangerous as cars are driving in the middle of the road to avoid any further damage to their cars. Only a matter of time before a serious accident happens on this stretch of road. Fingers crossed that this issue is resolved beforehand.
