Quick News from Cambridgeshire County Council

A new speed limit scheme was formally marked in Witcham, near Ely, last week.

The local community, led by Witcham Equestrian Centre and the Parish Council, came together to campaign and raise funds for a speed reduction scheme in the village after a car collided with two horses and their riders last year.

Horses Patsy (pictured below) and Fleur were injured in the accident but made a full recovery. The scheme, reducing the speed limit from 40 to 30mph in various sections and install new signage, has now been installed.

A massive congratulations to the community in Witcham for this fantastic effort!
