From the houses of Southwood Gardens and Maidenhead Road, in order to walk to the schools, shops, station and park of Cookham we have to get across Cannondown Road where it meets Maidenhead Road.
In order to reach Furze Platt School, which is the designated Secondary School for the children of Cookham, it is necessary for this road to be crossed for those children on foot.
This section of road is currently a 40mph speed limit, but has only just been slowed from a 50 coming from Maidenhead and so cars are often travelling at some speed! I propose that this section of the road is slowed to 30mph (as it has been the other side of the railway bridge on Maidenhead Road) and that a crossing is put in place to provide us with a safe place to cross. 30mph would also be a safer speed at which to approach the railway bridge where cars going towards Cookham have to give way to cars in the other direction with poor visibility around a bend in the road. Slowing the cars down would also therefore make this safer.
