| case | Please briefly outline the nature and location of any maj... | Kirkgate parking | Elliot Strret /Howwden Rd Junc | Bell Sq/Bolton Rd Junc | Skipton Road parking | Speeding | Residential Streets | Zebra Crossings | Other | |
| 1 | Zebra crossings often disregarded by drivers. Repaint stripes on road and illuminate beacon poles. | |||||||||
| 4 | the junction to ings way from howden road is a nightmare,as is the junction of clog bridge to the main road.stop the parking would stop the first problem and traffic lights would help the second | |||||||||
| 5 | bolton road people speed coming into the town and down bolton road. a speed camera is needed about pickard line point. also crossing the bypass | |||||||||
| 6 | Junction of Bell Square and Bolton Road. A mini roundabout would make it easier to get out of Bell Square and discourage speeding on the corner/up Bolton Road North St - very narrow and often used as a rat run - could do with being a 20 mph limit or ideally one way from near Methodist Chapel to Elliott St. | |||||||||
| 8 | The junction of Bell Square. It's a bit of a 'blind spot', and oncoming cars can appear very quickly to vehicles turning right out of the road. | |||||||||
| 9 | Pedestrian crossings, Bypass crossing to get to station. | |||||||||
| 10 | junction at kings arms | |||||||||
| 11 | skipton road out to crossmoor needs 20mph speed limit | |||||||||
| 15 | juntion from Bell Sq onto Bolton Road is an accident blackspot. The junction from Howden Rd & Elliot St onto Kirkgate is generally congested. Howden Road nr Cobbydale stores where the road narrows & darkens at night. | |||||||||
| 16 | the zebra crossing nearest the bridge, even with crossing patrol | |||||||||
| 18 | Main street parking causes congestion. Crossing the bypass on foot, an overhead bridge is needed | |||||||||
| 19 | Exiting Daisy Hill onto Howden Road. Poor visability of cars coming up Howden Rd. A mirror would solve this. | |||||||||
| 20 | clog bridge and bell square | |||||||||
| 22 | junction of howden road/elliott street/main street. the parking along the main street causes lots of problems, especially with larger vehicles, backed up traffic is dangerous when trying to use the zebra crossings. the crossings over the bypass to get to the station | |||||||||
| 23 | bell square/ bolton road junction cars too fast down bolton road | |||||||||
| 24 | Crossing the by pass to the train station. | |||||||||
| 25 | howden road skipton road canal bridge double yellow lines to prevent these areas becoming car parks and obscuring vision for pedestrians and drivers | |||||||||
| 28 | Junction of Howden Road with Main Street and Elliot Street. I suggest a mini roundabout, with give way to the right, at this junction. | |||||||||
| 30 | Bolton road - pulling out from Dale view & Banklands avenue is dangerous as cars travel too fast down Bolton road. Also crossing Bolton Road as a pedestrian is lethal due to the speeds of cars up & down Bolton Road. Bridge Street and Bolton Road junction. -always accidents here- needs to be a roundabout or traffic lights Kirkgate pedestrian crossings are dangerous as not many motorists stop. Need pedestrian lights probably . Elliott street/Kirkgate junction - very busy turning right out of Elliot street as other cars come too fast over the bridge from the bypass side. | |||||||||
| 33 | The blind corner at the bottom of Howden road where cars travelling towards the Toyota garage are driven in the middle of the road because cars are always parked on the lefthand side despite the parking restriction & lack of yellow lines to remind them! | |||||||||
| 34 | Pedestrian crossing of Aire Valley bypass. Bridge would help. It is a mystery why there is a tunnel at Kildwick but not at Silsden/Steeton. | |||||||||
| 36 | Pedestrian crossing of bypass. Zebra crossing at Clogg Bridge. | |||||||||
| 37 | A under ground bridge or over the top bridge of some sort over the bypass as it makes it really rather scary trying to coss this with a pram! | |||||||||
| 39 | Junction at bottom of elliott st. Traffic lights at zebra crossing? | |||||||||
| 40 | The crossing of the bypass from Silsden to the Station. Pelican Crossing. | |||||||||
| 41 | bridge over the bypass, please | |||||||||
| 42 | Elliot st ,kly rd 20mph speed limit through village | |||||||||
| 43 | A lot of drivers don't stop at the zebra crossing just over the canal bridge. I don't know if they don;t see it but I'm frequently half way over the crossing and someone drives in front of me. | |||||||||
| 51 | Traffic lights or roundabout at junction of Kirkgate/Clog Bridge/ Elliott Street | |||||||||
| 52 | Elliot Street and Howden Road access onto Kirkgate needs a hatched areas to prevent through traffic clogging access thereto | |||||||||
| 54 | Crossing the bypass. | |||||||||
| 55 | Safe pedestrian crossing (bridge?)required across bypass to station etc. | |||||||||
| 57 | The main street through Silsden is a danger due to the traffic congestion and the parking which is allowed outside the shops on the main road. This holds up the traffic considerably when there is plenty of parking nearby. Large vehicle travelling through the village are quite frightening when walking along the main street. | |||||||||
| 60 | bottom of howden road elliot street would be much safer with traffic lights | |||||||||
| 61 | Outside post office on main road! Parked cars cause traffic | |||||||||
| 62 | Difficulty in crossing Bolton Road near the junction of Pickard lane | |||||||||
| 63 | If coming into Silsden from the station, the footpath to the left is too narrow and at one point narrows so considerably (street light with 40mph sign attached) that I need to push my sons pram onto the road to get past. | |||||||||
| 65 | The junction of Clog Bridge and Kirkgate is a major problem, an accident waiting to happen: made all the more significant because it is the sole entry point from Kirkgate to Howden Road and all the estates in that area, which means that if it is blocked then there is a real danger problem of emergency vehicles not being able to get through. | |||||||||
| 66 | The Howden Road, Elliott Road staggered crossroads is quite tricky but people who are local know to let people in and so on. | |||||||||
| 69 | Congestion caused by large vehicles turning out of small drives on Keighley Rd. during times of high volume of traffic. | |||||||||
| 70 | 1) The roundabout at steeton. I am surprised we don't hear of more people being hit by cars speeding around it. Solution : foot bridge? underpass? (would be easier for bikes/prams/elderly..) | |||||||||
| 72 | Crossing the road before Clog Bridge on Howden Rd. Poor visibility and many children use this area. | |||||||||
| 73 | skipton road from junc briggate upto elm grove. (parking) | |||||||||
| 74 | jcn bell square, bolton road/tannery corner,elliot st/ clog bridge jcn cars parked illegally on footpaths, o/s cash machines ,pubs takeaways | |||||||||
| 75 | Crossing the Keighley road to access Steeton Station | |||||||||
| 76 | Around both schools, the speed limit should be 20mph and parking restrictions need enforcing. | |||||||||
| 77 | Crossing Aire Valley Trunk Road - Bridge not underpass. Junction of Keighley Road and Elliot Street/Clog Bridge - Traffic Lights | |||||||||
| 80 | I LIVE ON DAISY HILL(29)AND THE VIEW IS RESTRICTED WHEN TRYING TO TURN RIGHT FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE ROAD AND I HAVE HAD A FEW NEAR MISSES,A CONVEX MIRROR OPPOSITE WOULD SOLVE THIS. | |||||||||
| 81 | Trying to get onto Bolton Road from Dale View,Pickard Lane,and Bell Square. | |||||||||
| 82 | People parking on Ingsway near the bottom junction onto howden road. It makes you drive round a long blind corner on wrong side of road. There should be double yellow lines, these people all have drives but don't use them. | |||||||||
| 83 | There is no footbridge or safe crossing on the bypass. There are lots of people would walk to the station if this had been provided | |||||||||
| 84 | stop parking on Kirkgate at all times | |||||||||
| 85 | Junction of Belton Road/Keighley Road. Solution' get rid of those STUPID BLUE BALLS, restore original line of carriageway and instal a mini roundabout. | |||||||||
| 94 | People drive too fast on Ings Way should be a 20mph zone with speed bumps. Extremely dangerous walking to Silsden station having to cross the Aire Valley Road - should have a subway. | |||||||||
| 95 | roundabout on clog bridge and skipton rd. | |||||||||
| 98 | junctions on main Keighley Road/Kirkgate with Howden Road and Elliot Street - at busy times these junctions become very dangerous when turning against the flow of traffic especially with traffic coming over the canal bridge. | |||||||||
| 99 | Main Street-Silsden,also where people curently drop off for the station | |||||||||
| 100 | Around Aireview Infant School near the front by Elliot Street. Elliot Street The Bottom of Howden Road Skipton Road | |||||||||
| 101 | Elliot street junction A6034. Surely a mini roundabout would be much easier at this very awkward junction. Traffic lights possibly but cost??? | |||||||||
| 102 | If there was a footbridge over the trunk road it would prvent the possibilty of a fatal accident on that road, also if the speed restriction was enforced on Station Road, Steeton. | |||||||||
| 105 | Top of Priest Bank Road to turn right. Traffic too fast on this country lane. | |||||||||
| 106 | Cars parked on Skipton Road make visibility when emerging from side residential roads (ie Tufton Street, Hothfield street) impossible and very dangerous. Also school pick-ups and drop offs make surrounding areas inaccesible at particular times. | |||||||||
| 107 | Howden Road outside Waterloo Mills, the Toyota garage and the junction of Howden Road and Ings Way.The road is narrow. The junction of Howden Road and the high street is very difficult to cross as is the junction with Elliott street and the high street | |||||||||
| 108 | Crossing the road by the roundabout by Steeton station - it's a wonder noone has died here. Please consider a bridge. | |||||||||
| 109 | Clog bridge - where Howden Rd joins the main road. I suppose there isn't room for a mini roundabout, which might improve things. Re-siting the zebra crossing might make it safer, or allowing traffic exiting Howden Rd only to turn left, and creating a space or a mini-roundabout on the other side of the canal bridge for cars to turn round and come back again if they want to go into the village. | |||||||||
| 110 | Junctions with cars parked to near creating blind spots. Everywhere in Silsden. Parking on narrow roads restricting access. | |||||||||
| 111 | Exit right from Howden Road on to Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 112 | One of the biggest danger spots is the lack of a bridge of pedestrian crossing over the bypass to station. | |||||||||
| 113 | As above | |||||||||
| 118 | crossing the bypass to get to the train station.perhaps building a bridge to help cross safely.the parking by the post office in silsden all down that street makes it harder for the drivers to get by as the parking there makes the roads smaller and people drive to close to the pavement occasionally mounting the pavement is dangerous especially as me and my child almost got hit when someone carried out that maneovure. | |||||||||
| 120 | There are a few areas on the main street, Belton Road, Aireview etc thats like a race track at night. Police in cars patrolling. Speed Cameras are not the answer or replacement for actual police! Speed checks at 10pm onwards would work but not at rush hour when the only people who are around are simply trying to get home from work. | |||||||||
| 122 | Drop-offs on the bridge by the Station. Crossroad by the canal bridge | |||||||||
| 123 | Parking in the main street should be withdrawn - or at least the last space opposite the Fish and Chip shop should be removed - the road is too narrow | |||||||||
| 125 | around aire view and hothfield should be pedestrian only-if thats not possible to made into a one way system so cars are not coming at you left and right | |||||||||
| 126 | Aire View is getting dangerous with the parked cars, would be easier as a one way like New Road. Walking down Howden Road the other day was like a grand prix. Cars racing. | |||||||||
| 129 | howden road is like a race track maybe impose a 20 mph limit also the junction with howden road and elliot street is an accident waiting to happen something must be done at this junction maybe a mini roundabout. i think a bypass would be a good idea | |||||||||
| 133 | Near the train station as described above (this reuires an underpass or bridge). Near the 2 schools. | |||||||||
| 134 | Access to Steeton and Silsden railway station across dual carriageway requires a bridge | |||||||||
| 135 | The cross roads between the main street and Elliot street (including zebra crossing) is always too busy - people nipping in and out. Traffic lights? Also the school bus stops on Skipton road - when there's a lot of rain a very large puddle forms taking up the whole of one side of the road. | |||||||||
| 136 | Suggest 20mph zone from canal bridge to King's Arms. Also difficult to cross Bolton Road by Memorial Gardens/Bell Square - mini roundabout possible? | |||||||||
| 138 | MINI ROUNDABOUT AT BELL SQUARE/BOULTON RD JUNCTION,PELICON CROSSINGS INSTEAD OF ZEBRA CROSSINGS AND NO PARKING ON KIRKGATE,FREE PARKING IN ALL CAR PARKS,7,1/2 TON LIMIT THROUGH THE TOWN,20 M.P.H.ZONE ON ELLIOT ST.& AIRE VIEW,REMOVAL OF BLUE BALLS & PAVMENT TO ORIGINAL ROAD ALIGNMENT,FOOTBRIDGE TO STEETON OVER AIRE VALLEY TRUNK RD. | |||||||||
| 139 | THE PEDESTRIAN CROSSING AT ELLIOT STREET/KIRKGATE/CLOG BRIDGE JUNCTION. SHOULD BE A PELICAN STYLE CROSSING | |||||||||
| 140 | Pickard lane onto Bolton rd, restrict parking close to end of lane, also Elliot street on to bolton rd, could do with a mini roundabout | |||||||||
| 144 | crossing the bypass on foot and crossing the road from station to car park | |||||||||
| 146 | Parking along Kirkgate, limit parking to Disabled only. | |||||||||
| 147 | trying to cross at the by pass to reach station | |||||||||
| 148 | 1:Pedestrians crossing aire Valley Trunk road to reach railway station. 2:Speed of cars within the '30' limit on Bolton Road north of town centre. | |||||||||
| 151 | Many of the streets emerging onto Bolton Road are dangerous to navigate out of safely as parked cars make it difficult to see traffic coming up the hill. | |||||||||
| 155 | The bend by the carpet shop/waterloo mills due to cobbled area and parking in front of the blue houses; parking around the schools | |||||||||
| 156 | Kirkgate is too narrow for the number of large lorries that use it & bring the traffic to a halt | |||||||||
| 158 | The road from Silsden to Steeton train station. | |||||||||
| 159 | The Bypass | |||||||||
| 160 | Tannery corner - getting out can be dangerous in a car as there is a wall blocking view of traffic coming up Bolton Rd. Maybe mirrors put there to help making getting out easier. | |||||||||
| 161 | The crossings at the bypass. It is only a matter of time before there is an accident. | |||||||||
| 163 | Bell Square - needs traffic lights or mini round-about. | |||||||||
| 164 | More room on the bus for a powerchair | |||||||||
| 167 | Crossing over the bypass to the station is not easy! | |||||||||
| 168 | coming out of Dale view onto Bolton road | |||||||||
| 169 | Junction of Howden Road and Main Road/Elliot Street. Needs a mini roundabout. Remove the blue balls on the approach to Silsden, have two lanes of traffic, one for turning right, one straight on and a mini roundabout. | |||||||||
| 170 | junction of howden road to main road. A one way system, way out under canal, onto belton road | |||||||||
| 171 | the speeders down bolton road- speed camera | |||||||||
| 172 | Roundabout leading to the station. A footbridge over the dual carraigeway would reduce the risk of being knocked over | |||||||||
| 173 | The pedestrian crossing at Clog Bridge. There is traffic coming at it from 4 directions and in my view there is an accident waiting to happen. It should either be moved or taken away and replaced with pedestrian lights and I favour the latter. | |||||||||
| 174 | The Elliot Street/Clog Bridge crossroad isn't very good. | |||||||||
| 177 | A foot bridge or underpass is needed instead of the crossing areas on the A629. Even reducing the speed on the roundabout would make it safer for pedestians. It seems ridiculous that the speed limit is 70mph where pedestrians are expected to cross four lanes of traffic. | |||||||||
| 178 | Belton Road | |||||||||
| 179 | A629 bypass. There will be deaths or serious injuries crossing this road | |||||||||
| 181 | A629 at Silsden railway station. The high street where parking is allowed by the beck. The off road car park a few hundred yards away is always half empty. | |||||||||
| 182 | crossing over the by pass | |||||||||
| 183 | Crossing by the co-op. | |||||||||
| 184 | Getting to the bypass is treacherous - and so many people run across the the bypass each day. Also, the zebra crossings are dangerous. The amount of times one lane stops, but the other doesnt is really dangerous and people very often have near misses. | |||||||||
| 188 | The crossroads at the end of Elliott Street | |||||||||
| 190 | The junctions of Elliot St and Clog Bridge onto Kirkgate. It's very dangerous especially as there's a zebra crossing there. Is it possible to look at a one way system into Elliot St preventing access to Kirkgate? | |||||||||
| 191 | Crossing the A629 to get to Steeton Station for pedestrians. | |||||||||
| 193 | Pavement area outside the Red Lion - If the parked cars were on that side then pedestrans would be safe and there is more room on the beck side of the road to enable pedestrians to keep away from the kerb edge. | |||||||||
| 195 | crossing to the train station. , Crossing to thew train station, a footbridge would be welcome | |||||||||
| 196 | Junction of Elliot Street/ Howden Road and Keighley Road can be difficult and dangerous at times due to speed of traffic appearing in a short distance over the canal bridge. Possible traffic signals could assist. Possible speed restrictions on Howden Road at near junction with Hawber Lane? | |||||||||
| 197 | Bolton Road. Too fast and too narrow for pedestrians. National Speed limit is fine. It needs enforcing - uphill AND downhill. North Street would be better as a one way system, downhill from Breakmoor Avenue to the Co-op. (Two - way for bikes, and two-way from Breakmoor Avenue to the junction with Bolton Road). The 'Lorry Squeeze' on the bend on Kirkgate near the ford. Lorries mount the pavement. Restrict access to Lorries. Lorries loading/unloading during morning rush 7:30ish. | |||||||||
| 199 | The main road through the town centre itself needs to be a designated 20mph zone. The road is too narrow near the post office and vehicles regularly mount the kerb there. The footpath to the station is inadequate and too narrow. Crossing the roundabout to the station is very dangerous and now requires a footbridge since many people are now using this route on foot. Non existent cycle paths or road markings to make cylcing safer. | |||||||||
| 201 | the bypass to cross it to get to the train station. see above for improvements. allso the public toilets are a disgrace how long have they been left to disrepair and could do with a tottal revamp. they smell vile and vandelised. could do with and electric door with a time lock on so that they are closed after 7.30 so limits and damage done to them and maybe those metal all in one hand washers with water and soaf despenser | |||||||||
| 202 | As previously the dual carriageway to to get to the railway station | |||||||||
| 203 | I do not look forward to crossing the very busy trunk road to get from Silsden to Steeton | |||||||||
| 207 | Roundabout approaching Steeton and Silsden station. Predestrian access to station is extremely hazardous. A bridge or underpass would be much safer. | |||||||||
| 208 | Walking to the station at steeton is very dangerous - crossing the main dual carriageway is like dicing with death. It is one of the most dangerous roads to cross especially in winter. I have had a couple incidents where i was nearly run over. | |||||||||
| 209 | Crossing the road at the roundabout to get to the train station. | |||||||||
| 210 | Poor street lighting in general and broken and cracked road down the side of the Co-op. Difficult to cross the main street in Silsden since people don't always stop at zebra crossings. There is a bus stop at the bottom of Skipton road too near the junction to bell square. | |||||||||
| 211 | Sharp bend at the top of Bolton road going up brown bank lane where the junction is on the bend. End of Elliot street, need a mini-roundabout or something. | |||||||||
| 212 | The turn off into Ings Way from Howden Road (lower end) is potentially dangerous to pedestrians at night, especially in bad weather. The junction is poorly lit and in its position at the top of a crest pedestrians that might be crossing, especially if wearing dark clothing, can be almost invisible to motorists. The fact that cars and light commercial vehicles park within 20-30 yards of the end of Ings Way also adds an additional hazard as the motorist turning into Ings Way has to be prepared to stop for oncoming vehicles that have been forced onto the wrong side of the road, which diverts attention away from potential pedestrian hazards (both at night and by day). I would recommend tighter parking restrictions at the end of Ings Way and better lighting. | |||||||||
| 213 | End of Elliot street. A silsden bypass | |||||||||
| 214 | None. All it takes is a bit of care. No need to overmanage the entire traffic situation. | |||||||||
| 216 | Silsden Main Street is very congested the bus drivers deserve medals. | |||||||||
| 217 | The junction of Elliott Street, Krirgate and Clog Bridge . It needs traffic lights or a mini roundabout | |||||||||
| 218 | Skipton Road - cars travel too fast and there is no pedestrian crossings near Hothfield Street for the school children who seem to take their life in their own hands crossing the road. Also a pedestrian crossing would be good further up the hill. Bolton Road could also do with some form of crossing half way up it. Top of Skipton Road - there are plans passed for some traffic calming outside Crossfield due to plans passed for more housing to be built why can't there be traffic calming all the way up this bit of the road until the 'd' restriction sign also a small footpath is to be built at this same section, why can't there be one all the way down to meet up with the other footpath by about 116 Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 219 | Exting Hillcrest Avenue in the mornign s when school buses are parled by Cobbydale Club. Cars come alongside the bsues and I am truning right up Skipton Road , I can't see them or vice versa. Also for drivers trunign right up Skipton Rd when buses arent ther - the pear tree Cottage garden blockes the view. | |||||||||
| 221 | No parking on main road through Silsden Some traffic don't obey speed limits | |||||||||
| 222 | Section crossing the dual carriageway to the railway station. But you knew that already! | |||||||||
| 223 | woodside road to skipton road poor visability when driving a car | |||||||||
| 224 | Elliott Street access onto Keighley Road. Needs improvement- use of possible mini roundabout. Remove parking adjacent to beck. | |||||||||
| 225 | Cars travel down Bradley Road far too quickly. Suggest ONE 'sleeping policeman' opposite The Green to slow traffic down | |||||||||
| 226 | The Elliott Street/Clog bridge junction. Turning out of Bell Square onto the main road there is a blind spot to the right. | |||||||||
| 229 | Bell Square traffic turning into Bolton Rd. Traffic lights required. Traffic turning into Kirkgate from Clog Bridge, traffic lights required. | |||||||||
| 230 | The bottom of Howden Road, corner opposite the carpet shop. The junction of Howden Road with the main street. | |||||||||
| 231 | Crossing to the station | |||||||||
| 232 | Silsden/Steeton roundabout. To explore the possibility of a pedestrian walkway | |||||||||
| 233 | The A629. Between Silsden and the railway station there are NO actual crossings for walkers, you take your life in your hands when you cross the road. | |||||||||
| 234 | all the zebra crossings. some drivers do not seem to see pedestrians crossing the by pass - there should be a proper crossing junction of Keighley Road and Belton Road needs a round a bout | |||||||||
| 235 | The bottom of Aire View. this is used for people trying to turn right onto Kirkgate rather than at the bottom of Elliot Street and is safer and easier than trying to turn out of Elliot street. However, traffic turning into Aire View from Kirkgate causes problems, especially as there are parked cars along the length of Aire View.New Road is already one way from Kirkgate. Aire View could therefore be made one way from Prince Street. | |||||||||
| 236 | Pedestrians having to cross the bypass to get to the train station. Elliot Street exit onto Keighley Road, Woodside Road onto Skipton Road, Skipton Road after Woodside to the exit from Silsden, regular speeding cars in a narrow lane with no footpaths, its a miracle no one has been killed. | |||||||||
| 237 | Clog Bridge/ Elliot Street and Bell Square/ Bolton Road blind spot at Briggate | |||||||||
| 240 | The turn off from the main road for Howden road Elliott street is a nightmare. Could the be traffic lights? or a roundabout | |||||||||
| 241 | The roundabout across the dual carriageway is a very dangerous spot and requires a safe pedestrian crossing. Keighley Road is also very busy and very difficult for pedestrians to cross at busy times. | |||||||||
| 245 | Pedestrian crossing at junction of Main St & Howden Road. Turning right out of Howden Road is a nightmare at busy times & often just when you've dashed out taking advantage of a small opportunity you find a pedestrian on the crossing I have to brake suddenly. Yes, ideally we should look out for them but it's not that clear cut & I'm surprised that there's not been a serious accident there. The whole of that junction with the staggered crossroads is a nightmare. | |||||||||
| 246 | Crossing the Airevalley trunk road - very hazardous. Bridge or subway needed. | |||||||||
| 247 | Where woodside road joins skipton road you cannot see to pull out due to the foliage, there are numerous near misses throughout the day. The home owner needs to cut the bushes back | |||||||||
| 249 | Silsden Main Street they are car parks empty yet cars block up the main street | |||||||||
| 250 | the crossroads just in front of the co-op there are cars turning in every direction getting in and out of the co-op car park and down to the 2 pubs dangerous for pedestrians | |||||||||
| 251 | Kirkgate in Silsden centre is very congested. Parking should be banned there. | |||||||||
| 252 | Junction at Howden Road at peak times. Part time traffic lights would help | |||||||||
| 254 | Staggered crossroads at bottom of Elliot Street a major hazard. Never use this crossroads if I can avoid it. Crossroads near Co-op and junction to main road near Kings Arms gets very congested as this is the only safe exit onto main road for people living in houses at Co-op side of road. Likewise with Clog Bridge being only way onto main road for Howden Road area housing. Not sure how to solve this - need to get a highways expert on it! | |||||||||
| 258 | Access from Millfields into Elliot Street when vehicles are parked on both sides. | |||||||||
| 259 | The bypass is a very dangerous crossing point. A bridge would be an ideal improvement. | |||||||||
| 261 | Crossing 6 lines of traffic at A629 to get to the train station | |||||||||
| 262 | Speeding on Bolton Road both up and down. How about introducing parking bays for residents to aid traffic calming and ease congestion on the side streets | |||||||||
| 264 | a 20mph speed limit through the town | |||||||||
| 265 | Safe pedestrian access to train station high priority | |||||||||
| 267 | I am surprised that no one has yet been killed on the zebra crossing out side the books the number of times I have been walk acorss and a car has just continued and i have had to stop. | |||||||||
| 269 | there are no crossings on Keighley road it is very difficult to cross as peak times. Drivers seem to not spot pedestrians waiting to cross the zebra crossing on Kirkgate | |||||||||
| 271 | Main road through silsden always busy therefore roads joining are offten congested | |||||||||
| 272 | no proper crossings, often cars don't stop on the main street | |||||||||
| 274 | Pleople dropping off passengers at train station | |||||||||
| 275 | The bottom of Howden Road. Too many areas to watch including the pedestrian crossing. | |||||||||
| 277 | as above | |||||||||
| 279 | crossing the bypass on foot, and the bridge over the railway especially in the winter months, there should be a safe way to cross from the car park without having to cross the road. | |||||||||
| 281 | The junctions of Elliot Street and Clog Bridge with Keighley Road/Kirkgate is hazardous and should have traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 282 | howden road junction with main road. speeding. | |||||||||
| 283 | By-pass crossing Exiting Elliot st by car onto Keighley rd Area arround infant school on Elliot St at start and finish of school. Bollards on Elliot st, cars park to close, parking lines shouild be moved back. | |||||||||
| 285 | Crossing the Aire Valley Road to get to the trains or through to Steeton. | |||||||||
| 286 | Junction by Kings Arms. Bolton Road cars speeding up the road towards Addingham | |||||||||
| 290 | no crossings on Bolton Road | |||||||||
| 291 | Turning off brown bank lane. Roundabout at A65 | |||||||||
| 292 | Junction at Elliott St, Keighley Road and Clog Bridge, unfortunately poor driving skills and impatience lead to bottlenecks and possible accidents | |||||||||
| 293 | Junction of Elliott St, Kirkgate, Clogg Bridge. Mini roundabout suggested. | |||||||||
| 294 | The bypass is dangerous to cross. Need a bridge or underpass..this would encourage bicyle use | |||||||||
| 299 | Bridge Stree. Bottom og Elliott Street Bottom of Aireview Bottom of Shed Side Clog Bridge | |||||||||
| 301 | Traffic lights at the bottom of Elliott Street. The type with a sensor on. | |||||||||
| 303 | To change the layout from Howden Road and Elliot Street to make it safer for cars coming out of busy junctions, this could be done via 2 mini roundabouts or traffic lights at peak times. | |||||||||
| 304 | Skipton road is very dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists as cars travel far beyond the speed limit. Police speed cameras , traffic island or narrowing of road, speed bumps etc where the road narrows to the rear of Hawkcliffe view | |||||||||
| 306 | Traffic control measures at the juction of Elliott Street/Kirkgate/Clog Bridge. | |||||||||
| 307 | Crossing the dual carriage way to get from silsden to the station. Bolton Rd - pedestrian crossing? The cross roads at Clog bridge - traffic lights? | |||||||||
| 312 | The roundabout to the station - very dangerous to cross - warning signs for drivers - ideally an over pass | |||||||||
| 314 | Regular parking on the main road outside Days of Grace gym causing danger near the bridge | |||||||||
| 316 | Narrow road area by the Post Office due to on road parking. | |||||||||
| 317 | opposite the petrol station there should be a crossing, near the bridge for access to canal for pedestrians and main crossing near roundabout to Steeton | |||||||||
| 318 | parking down both sides of Skipton Road parking on pavements on North Street | |||||||||
| 319 | Elliot Street/Keighley Road junction especially at busy times.Possibly rush hour traffic lights. Out side the schools at drop off and pick up times. More police patrols and fines for inconsiderate drivers. | |||||||||
| 320 | Pedestrian access across roundabout | |||||||||
| 321 | Clog bridge/Elliot Street and that mad lollipop woman who seems to step onto the crossing without any regard for anything else going on! Traffic lights? | |||||||||
| 322 | I cycle. The following is a list of places where I feel that I have previously been in serious danger of being run into by a car that has failed to see me (or simply ignored me) as I use the main road to travel southbound between Silsden centre and the Aire valley road : Elliot St/Clog Bridge intersection with Kirkgate Junction of Keighley Rd and Howden Road Junction of Naylor-Myers/Shell garage with Keighley Road Northbound: Elliot St/Clog Bridge intersection with Kirkgate Junction of Aire View with Kirkgate | |||||||||
| 323 | Crossing trunk road to the station is deadly.Need a crossing point with traffic lights. Disabled or elderly or anybody slow are effectively barred from crossing. Also, since putting the traffic islands in at either end of silsden on the main road, this has turned a safe wide road into a deadly chicane for cyclists. I have written to road planners at bradford about this when they were put in place, but apparently they know best!! A solution would be a restriction from the kerb side, with a gap for cycles to go through, so the cyclist is not having to expect a car to hit them. | |||||||||
| 324 | roundabout across to steeton major problem and the narrow areas in and out of silsden for cyclists as cars squeese through | |||||||||
| 326 | Elliot street/howden road/ keighley road junction. no suggestion. Banklands Lane/bolton road junction. Convex mirror on lamp post oposite banklands lane junction with Bolton Road. Enabling traffic to enter Bolton road safely not blindly | |||||||||
| 327 | The bend by the carpet shop in Howden road. children come out of hainsworth road and cross there as traffic sppeeds round that bend. Plus cars and vans park outside waterloo mill obstructing views of the bend. | |||||||||
| 328 | Crossing trunk road. Underpass needed | |||||||||
| 329 | roundabout on the byepass | |||||||||
| 331 | The zebra crossings are regularly ignored. I have personally witnessed many 'near misses. Introduce speed humps. | |||||||||

| 335 | Speeding up Howden Road and through Brunthwaite village (often Golf Club users) | |||||||||
| 336 | Parked cars at the bottom of Skipton Road | |||||||||
| 337 | poor condition of Hillcrest Avenue - road needs adopting and resurfacing as do the surrounding roads | |||||||||
| 339 | howden road onto the main street is a real danger spot and the system needs to be changed. | |||||||||
| 341 | lower end of Skipton road ,bottle neck caused by car owners who do not wish to pay parking fees. Traffic lights on junc of howden rd/main rd/elliot st. | |||||||||
| 342 | Canal bridge area on the main road | |||||||||
| 345 | Zebra crossing by Elliot Street junction, frequently find that cars do not stop and speed past here. Making this a pelican crossing with lights would surely help. Also trying to turn right at the same junction emerging from Elliot Street can be hazardous at times with speeding cars emerging suddenly from over the top of the canal bridge. | |||||||||
| 346 | The zebra crossing outside the Betting Shop is really bad due to cars struggling to get out of Howden Road and two lanes of traffic approaching it from the bridge. Getting across the bypass if going to the train station. | |||||||||
| 347 | car/van parking on the setts on the corner of Howden Road infront if Waterloo Mills | |||||||||
| 348 | Parking at the foot of Bradley Rd /Skipton Rd Traffic calming through the Main St | |||||||||
| 349 | Parking on the road junction corner Bradley road outside Butchers/Shoe repairers | |||||||||
| 351 | Turning right out of Elliot Street onto the Keighley/Bolton road. Likewise turning right from Howden Road onto the Keighley/Bolton Road.Drivers have to rely on the courtesy of the more considerate drivers to let the cars out. I think a roundabout would just add to the congestion in this area. So add some signage to make drivers aware that consideration should be given to other road users. The bottom of Skipton Road, at the mini crossroads near the Co-op can be very congested at busy times. An improved regard for the Highway Code would make this spot less dangerous as many drivers appear to have little understanding as to who exactly has priority. | |||||||||
| 352 | Outside the Football club and junction with the Industrial Estate - too much on street parking, and with a narrowed road at the junction traffic is getting snarled up. also the Sykes Lane exit/entrance being single lane and on a hill causes traffic entering the main road to be a real hazard. | |||||||||
| 353 | Traffic regularly speed up Howden Road. Perhaps spot speed checks may deter this, although some of speeding traffic is from young people on an evening. | |||||||||
| 356 | Parking in Kirkgate and Skipton Road | |||||||||
| 361 | the bottom of Elliot Street is a nightmare to exit. Parking should not be allowed on the main street it gets too congested at peak times, and pedestrians take their lives in their hands trying to cross the by pass toward and from Station Road | |||||||||
| 362 | The main road and dual carriage way by the train station, as I regularly use the trains, and the roads can become very busy and dangerous. | |||||||||
| 363 | pedestrian crossing by Elliot Street/ Clog Bridge on main road. Cars often don't stop | |||||||||
| 364 | The Steeton and Silden rounderbout, Pedestrian crissing by Elliott St and the crossroad at Elliot Street/Main Street/Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 365 | crossing the Aire Valley trunk road to/from the station | |||||||||
| 366 | The bridge going down towards the bypass where there is no pavement on the left hand side ,which is where you need to be to cross for the train station. | |||||||||
| 369 | Kirkgate, CXanal Bridge | |||||||||
| 370 | Zebras in Silsden need to be maintained both stripes on the road and lights, last year the zebras were almost invisable. People parking on the main street outside of the parking zoned areas esecially outside the fish & chip shop during peak traffic hours causing traffic queues. Pavement outside on Elliott Street outside Health Centre jutting out onto road. Parking on Clog Bridge going round onto Howden Road / John Street. Carpet Gallery vans and other cars park onto the main road which is a hazard when going round a blind corner onto Howden Road. Also parking on the cobbles or pavement here is also a hazard as coming down Howden Road makes this a blind corner. Parking on Keighley Road outside the Cricket club, although signs on walls asking people not to park people do ending with parking on both sides of road! Parking on Craven Drive / Craven Avenue. This is a residential area and it looks like a car park during the day due to Toyota and Snugpack staff parki ng here, white lines have been painted here to stop people parking over driveways however this is not always the case. This is also the Hopper Bus route and makes this very dangerous and cannot see when turning onto Craven Drive from Howden Road and Craven Avenue from Craven Drive, this should be made into residential are parking only. If businesses want to be in the middle of residential areas then they should provide parking or work transport. Sadly double yellow lines! More traffic wardens police to stop people parking in dangerous spots especially for repetative offendors like Carpet Gallery vans! | |||||||||
| 372 | as above. | |||||||||
| 374 | The crossing to steeton could really do with a footbridge, it's not safe for people to cross especially people like myself with a pram. | |||||||||
| 376 | The junctions of Elliot street and Howden Road. Traffic exiting Aireview into Kirkgate. Parking on Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 377 | Crossing the bypass to the station - build a bridge or underground tunnel like the one near Victoria park in Keighley. Keighley Rd near petrol station. My mum is over 70 but very fit for her age but sometimes she can be stood there over half hour waiting to cross - zebra or pelican crossing needed. | |||||||||
| 378 | Road markings worn away in area of co-op | |||||||||
| 379 | skipton rd outside the vets ,must have double yellows | |||||||||

| 387 | howden road junction pulling out, junction with bell square & bolton road | |||||||||
| 388 | Crossing the dual carriageway has a high risk to pedestrians. The right hand turn coming out of elliot street is risky, particularily to cyclists, as cars tend to rush out of the junction due to limited duration of visibility. The parking areas on silsden high street should be cropped back by a car or two parking bays (heading towards the bridge) as it causes clogging within the village and a risk of damage to passing cars and a high risk to cyclists. | |||||||||
| 389 | Double parking on Skipton Road; parking on double yellow lines in the middle of Silsden for people making a quick visit to shops, cash machines etc; parking on Dale View which is too near the junction with Bolton Road (which is sometimes also double parking) | |||||||||
| 392 | It seems the only way to deal with the problems of crossing the motorway to access the station is a bridge. I understand traffic lights are not allowed and an underpass would be at risk of flooding.There are problems at Clog Bridge / Elliot street accessing the main road. There is also a problem coming out of Bradley Rd, as cars parked on the road side block vision of the oncoming traffic. Yellow lines would be useful here. | |||||||||
| 397 | junction near purple garlic is a blind spot. junction out of elliot street. | |||||||||
| 398 | As above - access to the station from Silsden - i.e. crossing the dual carriageway is a safety hazard for fit adults never mind the elderly and those with young children. Its an accident waiting to happen. A safe quick solution is required i.e. subway or over-road walkway (suitable for prams and wheelchairs) is a MUST as soon as possible. | |||||||||
| 401 | Re-paint stripes at crossings on roads and posts.. Illuminate the beacons on posts. Warning sign south of canal bridge that there is a crossing after bridge.20 mph limit. | |||||||||

| 414 | 1. Clog Bridge/Kirkgate/Elliot St junction - there should be a double mini roundabout. 2. Bell Sq/Bolton Road junction - I have witnessed several accidents at this spot, there should be a mini roundabout. 3. The Dale View / Bolton Road junction - there have been several accidents here caused by vehicles overtaking cars going up the hill, there should be an electronic speed reminder for traffic going up the hill situated before the Dale View turning. (a painted traffic island and car parking restrictions would also help) | |||||||||
| 415 | elliot street at school times would would benefit from twenty miles zone past the school or a slow down sign | |||||||||

| 419 | Crossing the bypass to get to Steeton and Silsden station. Coming out of Elliott Street whether turning left or right there is a danger of oncoming traffic over the canal bridge. | |||||||||
| 421 | howden rd turning needs addressing. | |||||||||
| 423 | Crossing the bypass between Silsden and Steeton, extremely dangerous for children or parents with prams!! Needs a bridge or tunnel!! Exiting Bradley Road onto Skipton Road is difficult with Taxis parked on either side of the road, sometimes blocking it. Lower part of Skipton road is usually down to one lane with cars parked on either side. Double yellow lines needed through out the main road running through Silsden!! | |||||||||
| 425 | skipton road cars parked both sides making crossing the road dangerous | |||||||||
| 427 | Crossroads of Elliott Street and Howden Road - perhaps suggest traffic light that can be seen when approaching the bridge coming into Silsden. Always a nightmare junction. | |||||||||
| 428 | the main bridge in silsden, next to old bridge pub. some speed up coming up from the bypass, when cars are pulling out of elliott street or people crossing over the road. May be some signs of speed ramps. Also, stopping heavy goods vehicles from using the main road to bypass through silsden when not dropping off in silsden. With the parked cars that slows traffic down (good idea), these HGV's cause congestion. | |||||||||
| 429 | Silsden parking main street. | |||||||||
| 430 | Bad exit on road to main street, i.e. Wesley Place, by Kings Arms and exit from Clog Bridge/main street/Elliott St/Kly Road is a nightmare! | |||||||||
| 431 | Crossroads at bottom of Elliott Street, turning right over canal bridge. Public seat is in the way plus sometimes cars park alongside the kitchen shop making it difficult for buses to turn. Improvement: remove public seat/bench and widen the corner for better vision of oncoming traffic. | |||||||||
| 432 | Parking on Kirkgate causes congestion and limits it to one way, made worse in last few years due to HGVs use of 'Sat Nav', Silsden is now used as a short cut. This means anyone driving through who sees a clear run through will accelerate to get through making crossing at Zebras dangerous as no-one stops. I have spoken to Inspector Sanderson at Ilkley who says there is no problem, she just can't be bothered. | |||||||||
| 433 | Main road through Silsden heavy with large lorries both ways. Prohibit very large lorries through the town. | |||||||||
| 434 | As above. Skipton Road parking. | |||||||||
| 435 | Junction of Elliott Street with Howden Road - roundabout needed. Traffic islands or some form of speed restriction down the length of Skipton Road where the 30mph speed limit is totally ignored in the majority of cases. | |||||||||
| 436 | Silsden's zebra at the junction of Howden Road outside Bet Fred. As a driver and pedestrian people miss-use the zebras and jump out. When driving down the town the corner of Howden Road acts as a blind spot and people come out onto the crossing, I think a barrier there might help - on a push button crossing. | |||||||||
| 437 | Lots of people walk to Steeton and have to cross over the by-pass, it's an accident just waiting to happen. | |||||||||
| 439 | Can't comment excepting this, we need street lighting in the back street in [?] Terrace. | |||||||||
| 441 | Bolton Road. Pelican light crossing for people to cross safely to park. Pelican lights at Town Hall. Traffic lights at junction Howden Road and Elliott Street. | |||||||||
| 442 | Junction at bottom of Elliott Street. Need for traffic lights with advance warning for traffic coming over the canal bridge. Too many parked cars on Skipton Road hinder the view of other cars and could easily cause accidents. On Bradley Road I'm sure cars often exceed the speed limit. More enforcement of the law is called for. | |||||||||
| 444 | Cross roads at Elliott Street/Howden Road when driving. Traffic can come quickly over the bridge. | |||||||||

| 456 | Silsden centre is a bottleneck and should be bypassed or stop parking down the main street and create a larger parking area. | |||||||||
| 458 | The main road going through the centre of Silsden and at busy times this is a danger spot with traffic travelling one way and traffic, including lorries, the other way, endeavouring to miss parked cars and the traffic travelling on the other side. | |||||||||
| 460 | Elliott Street/Clog Bridge junction... Due to traffic coming over the canal bridge being unseen crossing at the end of Hainsworth Road due to the bend in Howden Road. | |||||||||

| 465 | Roundabout to get to Silsden train station. | |||||||||
| 466 | The crossing along main street Silsden - cars don't stop and if van is in from of a car driver they are not always aware that there is a crossing if they don't know the road. Need to have a flashing beacon to press when want to cross the road or traffic lights. Not much room to pass (cars) main street. Parking should not be allowed along main street. Need to provide more parking spaces for those who want to shop in main street especially Post Office/First Stop etc. | |||||||||
| 467 | Junction of Belton Road and Keighley Road. Corner near Habisit Rossi. Traffic travels too fast after the Silsden 'bottleneck'. The junction of Keighley Road, Howden Road and Elliot Street - always a bun fight of confusion. | |||||||||
| 468 | Junction of Howden Road, Clog Bridge, and Elliot Street with Kirkgate. Traffic lights. | |||||||||

| 489 | Very difficult to get out of Howden Road to go up town towards Ilkley. | |||||||||
| 490 | It is very unsafe crossing the bus stop in Bolton Road from Pickard Lane to Dale View. I think it needs a safe crossing place. | |||||||||
| 491 | Zebra crossings! Cars don't stop . Aireview at school time – one way street. | |||||||||
| 493 | Parking up Drivers Hill. Doesn't matter which way I'm going – I always have to give way! Maybe one way systems should be introduced around the area. Crossing Bolton Road at peak times. Also cannot see for parked cars if is car coming out of Pickard Lane or crossing on foot. | |||||||||
| 494 | Elliot Street/Kirkgate junction. Junction by Kings Arms public house/Co-op/ Speed of traffic on Elliott Street. Pedestrian crossings on Kirkgate especially early mornings, very few cars will stop and most speed at that time too! Large articulated lorries using Silsden as a short cut – make it a lorry free zone! | |||||||||
| 495 | Please see above. Zebra crossings especially the one at Elliott Street/Clog Bridge. In general there are too many hazards both as a driver and pedestrian. | |||||||||

| 501 | The junction at the bottom of Bradley Road (near butchers and hairdresser and cobblers) and Skipton Road bottom. Parked cars on most days of the week - invite dangerous accident. Ban parking up the length for first 300 years. Alternate days which side can be used for parking (using signs). | |||||||||
| 505 | Crossing the bypass. | |||||||||

| 513 | People parking on the zig zag lines at the schools and also parking on the bends of roads near to the schools. | |||||||||
| 515 | Bypass between Silsden and Steeton makes crossing impossible. Footbridge, subway on zebra crossing needed. | |||||||||
| 516 | Difficult emerging from Hothfield Street onto Skipton Road due to inconsiderate parking outside dentists. Double yellow lines needed. Parking next to double white lines on canal bridge. | |||||||||
| 517 | Skipton Road (parked cars). Howden Road junction. Bell Square and Bolton Road junction. | |||||||||
| 519 | Parking below the Post Office!! An accident waiting to happen, the road isn't wide enough for two vehicles to pass. | |||||||||
| 520 | Top road (Skipton Road) from Silsden over to Kildwick is used as a rat run making it dangerous to walk as no footpath. | |||||||||

| 528 | Kirkgate zebra crossing at Clog Bridge. | |||||||||
| 529 | Main St - change zebra crossing to pelican. Main St - ban parking by Post Office (if it was road works, instead of parked cars, there would be traffic lights). Howden Road/Main Rd junction - put traffic lights on this junction, incorporating the crossing, when there was major gas works with traffic lights it was far easier to get out of Howden Road/Elliot Street. | |||||||||
| 530 | The junction from Aire View that joins the main road by the bridge - left. And also Howden Road when turning right. | |||||||||
| 532 | Roundabout on bypass near train station is a nightmare for cyclists and pedestrians. Needs a footbridge or at least a puffin crossing ASAP. | |||||||||

| 549 | Clog Bridge Elliott Street, Kirkgate why don’t we make it one way under the culvert (going towards Steeton). Daisy Hill (Howden Road) make the road up one field to the top of the park, it would help all the residents this side of Silsden, it was supposed to be done a few years ago. To exit onto Bolton Road, ban lorries from Silsden Main Street. | |||||||||
| 550 | Zebra crossing near Clog Bridge almost hit twice by cars coming from Clog Bridge turning and not taking care of crossing. | |||||||||
| 551 | Lower part of Skipton Road is difficult because of parking both sides of dentists down. Should ban parking during day on one side. Other bus routes - Elliott Street - need attention to make it easier for buses to negotiate. Need to evaluate position of the traffic island outside the school and adjacent parking. | |||||||||
| 552 | Junction with Elliott St and Kirkgate. The corner should have been taken off where the boatyard is to allow better vision up canal bridge and allow room for buses and large vehicles to turn. | |||||||||
| 553 | Not in Silsden centre but crossing Aire Valley road is almost impossible at busy times and highly dangerous. | |||||||||

| 555 | Around the new sports club its very dark; it’s a busy road and people tend to park on the opposite side of the road to the facility. Had children run out in front of me before and it is very dark and sometimes difficult to see them. It could be improved. | |||||||||
| 556 | Speed coming down Bolton Road, humps possibly. Roundabout at Elliott St and Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 558 | End of Dradishaw Road onto Skipton Road, cars coming up the hill need some sort of speed trap or hump to slow cars. | |||||||||
| 560 | People ignore pedestrians at the crossings and just drive past. Maybe cameras would help at appropriate points. | |||||||||
| 562 | Bridge over railway track. Parking on bridge for dropping off and picking up, fence should be erected along road side it’s a danger parking on brow of bridge I know of 2 people knocked down on bridge. | |||||||||
| 563 | The 2 traffic islands on approach to Silsden, one near cricket/football club and one just past top Bolton Road/bottom of Cringles cause narrowing of road and putting cyclists at great risk from motorised traffic not giving way. Pavement jutting out into Elliott Street at access to health centre car park, would not be visible to motorists in deep snow. | |||||||||
| 564 | Coming out of Tufton St and Hothfield St in to Skipton Road, unable to see any traffic coming up Skipton Road. | |||||||||

| 576 | Zebra crossings. All of them. | |||||||||
| 577 | Personally have a major problem getting out of Elliott Street. Traffic lights may help or a mini roundabout but the speed of traffic over the bridge would be a problem there. Coming out of other end of Silsden means getting held up in town. | |||||||||
| 578 | The junction of Clog Bridge and Elliott Street is really bad but I don’t know what would help. | |||||||||
| 579 | All the people crossing the road at the roundabout coming/going from Steeton especially at high use times of day but not sure how this can be helped, but it is dangerous for drivers and pedestrians. | |||||||||
| 580 | Skipton Road needs traffic calming measures especially at the top between High Green Drive and Woodside Ride. Also mirrors for exits directly onto Skipton Road. People drive far too fast here. | |||||||||
| 582 | Junction - Main Road/Elliott St/Howden Road traffic lights at this junction. | |||||||||
| 583 | Main High Street; too much parking and HGV's. Possibly re-route HGV's - tend to drive on pavements to get through especially when young children and elderly are walking. | |||||||||
| 587 | Kirkgate - it is dangerous walking on the pavements. Lorries sometimes mount the pavements to get past parked cars and other large vehicles. Also on Elliott Street the crossing in the middle of the road and parked cars near cause cars to swerve - they are going too fast. | |||||||||
| 588 | The main street in the centre of the town. | |||||||||
| 589 | Lower Skipton Road stop all the double parking at the vets and dentists. Its dangerous for the school children. | |||||||||
| 590 | Limited vision when crossing bend on Hainsworth Road with or without pushchair. | |||||||||
| 591 | Bottom of Bradley Road near butchers could do with double yellow lines. | |||||||||
| 592 | No parking on road in town centre (another car park perhaps) Traffic lights urgently needed at the Howden Road junction. Enforce speed limit more flashing warning signs at half way up North street. Restrict use of top road/Silsden to Farnhill which is becoming a rat run. | |||||||||
| 593 | Traffic lights at Bell Square. | |||||||||
| 594 | Howden Road and Kirkgate bad get out. | |||||||||
| 595 | Excessive speed down Woodside Road. | |||||||||
| 596 | Woodside Road has some very speedy drivers often 50-60 mph. Skipton road near to 30 mile limit very narrow, cars travelling to Skipton speed up before reaching the boundary/restriction. Skipton road is quite hairy to walk along but that part is in North Yorkshire. | |||||||||
| 597 | Crossing at the roundabout between Silsden and Steeton on the bypass. | |||||||||
| 598 | Vehicles parking at bottom end of Skipton Road obstruct view of drivers exiting Bradley Road. | |||||||||
| 599 | Bradley Road speeding often between 60 and 70 mph. The 30 mph signs should be located above Raikes Care Home. | |||||||||
| 600 | Zebra crossing. Pelican crossing. | |||||||||
| 602 | Traffic speeding up Howden Road, speed warning signs or cameras. Junction at bottom of Howden Road - mini roundabout. | |||||||||
| 603 | Bridge Road by Co-op. Kirkgate, Elliott St, Clog Bridge needs traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 604 | Traffic lights Elliott St junction with Main St and Clog Bridge. | |||||||||
| 605 | Bottom of Elliott St - traffic coming from Clog Bridge. HGV's coming through the village. | |||||||||
| 608 | Remove all High Street parking. Put mini roundabout at Clog Hill/Elliott Street/Howden Road junction - presently very difficult to get out of Howden Road/Elliott Street. Ensure lollypop lady waits till she has group of children before she stops traffic. Presently she stops traffic for every 1 child. She should not use facility for adults without children. | |||||||||
| 610 | Skipton Road double parking - speed of which drivers come down this road. Parking on one side one - speed limit. | |||||||||
| 611 | Restrict speed at the top of Silsden Road. | |||||||||
| 613 | South View cars speed up there. Trying to get out of Elliott Street on to main road. I am sure cars are not keeping to speed limit over canal bridge. | |||||||||
| 617 | Right turn from Elliott Street to Keighley Road make this no right turn. No impact on bus route as buses only turn into Elliott Street from Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 618 | Bottom of Elliott Street getting out. | |||||||||
| 619 | Junction at Elliott Street/Clog Bridge. Junction at bridge Street onto main road. Zebra crossing - drivers don’t always stop. | |||||||||
| 621 | Should be more 20 mph areas in built up areas. Need pedestrian access to station across bypass. | |||||||||
| 623 | Pedestrians crossing on the Aire Valley Trunk Road – extremely dangerous as cars do not slow down and actually use roundabout as a personal chicane (as if on a race track). Someone was run down in November only a matter of time before someone is killed. We need a bridge or pedestrian crossing. Right turn out of Bell Square onto Bolton Road – traffic coming both ways are speeding down. | |||||||||
| 625 | A mini roundabout at Bell Square. | |||||||||
| 626 | Access to the railway station, over the dual carriageway. Cars parking on the main road through Silsden causing congestion. People should use the car parks, more car parks or rent the car parks behind the pubs. The junction at both ends of the village, should be lights. The traffic could be controlled by virtue of speed cameras on the main road. | |||||||||
| 627 | Bolton Road - speed bumps. North Street - needs to be one way for home/rent tenants only. | |||||||||
| 628 | The speed of traffic on Bolton Road. | |||||||||
| 631 | The most dangerous place is trying to turn right up Silsden coming off Howden Road when traffic is coming over the bridge and off Elliott Street and down Silsden may need a small roundabout. | |||||||||
| 632 | Stop all parking in the main street and put in slow down bumps. Also the crossing for pedestrians, need to be traffic lights no one stops any more to let you cross. Getting very dangerous to cross the road. | |||||||||
| 667 | The junction at the bottom of Elliott Street and Keighley Road needs traffic lights installing. The junction from Bell square into Bolton Road. | |||||||||
| 669 | Crossing Bolton Road below Bell Square junction. Crossing the bypass to the station. | |||||||||
| 670 | Junction - Howden Road/Main Road and Elliott Street traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 671 | By-pass and crossing near Purple Garlic. | |||||||||
| 672 | Kings Arms junction. | |||||||||
| 673 | Bypass for people trying to get to station. Hothfield by dentist cant see to get onto Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 675 | Hillcrest Avenue, from Bridge Street to Co-op pavement uneven and dangerous. Bus stop (towards Keighley) on Bridge Street drain regularly overflows and cars try to avoid resulting lake. | |||||||||
| 676 | Main road through Silsden nearly always congested even at quite times. | |||||||||
| 677 | Clog Bridge and the whole of Kirkgate is an ordeal. | |||||||||
| 678 | Bottom of Elliott Street to main road and coming from Howden Road. Traffic lights would be useful. | |||||||||
| 679 | Crossing at Kings Arms to visit Co-op. Clog Bridge pedestrian crossing dangerous. Nightmare speeding on Ings Way. | |||||||||
| 680 | It is difficult to come out of Tufton Street and the main road, when there are a lot of cars parked on the main road. | |||||||||
| 681 | Crossing bypass to get to railway station for other member of family. Zebra crossings, especially one at bottom of Howden Road, are danger spots due to bad drivers. | |||||||||
| 682 | Elliott Street/Kirkgate/Howden Road junction is very busy at certain times of the day. People using the zebra crossing are sometimes ignored (tea time). | |||||||||
| 683 | Skipton Road is terrible for crossing as all the cars that park there make it difficult to see. | |||||||||
| 684 | Traffic lights at the bottom of Elliott Street. The type with a sensor on. | |||||||||
| 687 | Definite - road junction at the King pub/Purple Garlic area. Poor line of view when pulling out into main road, but not sure what can be done apart form pull buildings down. | |||||||||
| 688 | Crossing over dual carriageway to get to station - pedestrian bridge. | |||||||||
| 689 | Danger areas are Kirkgate by the pond. To improve stop the parking. | |||||||||
| 690 | Kirkgate/Elliott Street/Howden Road junction and crossing - cars do not see the crossing - traffic lights. Skipton Road parked cars. Parking on road and pavement on both sides of Belton Road making driving dangerous especially on bend and at junction - double yellow lines needed for full length of Belton Road. | |||||||||
| 693 | For many years Silsden has been rumoured to be getting a bypass which would benefit the whole area. Huge heavy goods vehicles should not be allowed through Silsden. This problem became worse since the Aire Valley Trunk Road was opened. Other villages have weight restrictions, why not Silsden? | |||||||||
| 695 | Traffic lights - Bells Square - Bolton Road. | |||||||||
| 700 | Howden Road is an accident waiting to happen. A 20 mph speed limit or speed bumps. | |||||||||
| 702 | Elliott Street needs traffic calming. Junction Bell Square. Junction Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 704 | Corner of Ings Way, where a pick up truck is parked. Its an obstruction for anyone trying to get in or out of Ings Way. There should be a longer yellow line places there. | |||||||||
| 705 | Zebra crossings. Warning signs for motorist they are approaching a zebra crossing a lot of motorists do not stop when a pedestrian is crossing (accident waiting to happen). A no parking in Skipton Road outside vets and dentist (accident waiting to happen). | |||||||||
| 706 | The zebra crossing at Howden Road/Elliott Street junction is far too near the junction. Pedestrians walk out of Howden Road immediately on to the crossing. It should be 15/20 yards nearer town centre. | |||||||||
| 710 | Dradishaw Road/Skipton Road junction/Elliott Street/Main Road/Howden Road junction speeding traffic at top of Skipton Road where road narrows - speed humps, reduce 30 mph restriction, more police speed traps. | |||||||||
| 714 | Junction of Skipton Road and Woodside Road. Junction of Elliott Street to Kirkgate. Junction of Bell Square to Bolton road. | |||||||||
| 715 | Clog Bridge onto the main street, traffic lights at this crossroads. | |||||||||
| 716 | Kirkgate because of cars parking by duck pond. Disabled only required. | |||||||||
| 717 | Down the main street when a lorry drives through its very hard for cars to carry on driving through the tight spaces. | |||||||||
| 718 | Parked cars with wing mirrors, making one in danger of driving too wide going through the village at busy times. | |||||||||
| 719 | Turning right at the top of North Street onto Bolton Road. Crossing Bolton Road near park. | |||||||||
| 720 | No parking on main street. Vehicles have to mount the kerb on the opposite side. Silsden has some people with sight difficulties and it must be hard for them, | |||||||||
| 722 | Car parking on the bend by the post office, Kirkgate makes passing big wagons/buses virtually impossible and should be removed. People should use the car park. Also dangerous for pedestrians crossing through standing traffic. | |||||||||
| 723 | Junction of Clog Bridge, Main Street and Elliott Street. Build pedestrian crossing and roundabout. | |||||||||
| 724 | The crossing of Kirkgate from Howden Road into Elliott Street. We could do with a mini roundabout to help steer traffic to required road. Exit from Bolton Road towards Co-op in Bell Square, mini roundabout please. | |||||||||
| 725 | Slow down transit through the town is the main point. Re route heavy lorries etc. | |||||||||
| 726 | Skipton Road. Encourage parking one side of road from Bridge Street to Elm Grove. Exit from Howden Road and Elliott Street to Keighley Road. Exit from Bell Square to Bolton Road. Kirkgate reduce parking space, put double yellow lines from post office to Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 727 | Junction of Bell Square and Bolton Road. Junction of Elliott Street and Howden Road with Kirkgate. All these have too much traffic trying to enter main through road. | |||||||||
| 728 | Turning right onto Kirkgate from the bottom of Howden Road. Traffic lights urgently needed. | |||||||||
| 731 | In the question of traffic congestion a 20mph zone from the 30mph sign on Bolton Road to the 40mph sign at the other end of the village, and the reverse, is in my opinion needed. Not that the need for the use of the narrowing of the road where the Blue Balls in the pavement is obsolete as the mill it was intended for is now defunct, the traffic from the factory units and on Bolton Road, has great difficulty getting out of Bolton Road. Better parking is needed for the football club the parking on the main road, and Belton Road is dangerous. | |||||||||
| 732 | Steeton - Silsden bypass roundabout. | |||||||||
| 733 | The junction of Howden Road, Elliott Street and the main road. Perhaps relocate the zebra crossing/mini roundabout? | |||||||||
| 735 | The clog Bridge area; access from Howden Road onto the main road. The layout at the bottom of St. John street made worse by bad parking. Some sort of safe access to the station for pedestrians walking from Silsden. | |||||||||
| 736 | Clog Bridge. Pedestrian crossing. Through traffic ignores speed limit. Badly needs traffic lights. A629-A6038 badly needs well lit underpass or flyover. | |||||||||
| 737 | Crossing the Aire Valley bypass at the roundabout. Bottom of Bolton Road. | |||||||||
| 738 | When descending Howden Road, turning right on a bicycle into John Street is very dangerous. The extreme bends outside the carpet shop prevent vehicles being seen early enough, particularly for pedestrians and cyclists. Cars go too fast round these bends. | |||||||||
| 739 | Very unsafe corner coming over Clog Bridge onto Howden Road at junction with Hainworth Road blind corner. Also crossing road from Toyota Garage to opposite side visibility is poor, fast cars slow pedestrians too many blind corners. Scary. | |||||||||
| 743 | Bottom at Bradley Road where people park right on the junction/corner. Speeding down Woodside Road/Elliott Street. | |||||||||
| 744 | Junction of Howden Road and Kirkgate and Elliott street need lights. Vehicles coming over canal bridge are a constant danger to turning vehicles and pedestrians. Kirkgate opposite chip shop. Reducing limited car parking by 1 or 2 spaces would stop blocking traffic flow and the frequency of minor bangs/loss of mirrors. Visibility on zebra crossing is dangerous in these hold ups. | |||||||||
| 745 | The pedestrian pavements through Silsden are becoming increasingly dangerous due to very heavy vehicles mounting pavements to get passed other traffic. A small toddler holding hands with a parent inches away from huge wheels - horrendous. Restrict heavy vehicles passing through Silsden. Now the volume of traffic is far too high for a narrow village road. Please find a way to decrease this before someone is killed. | |||||||||
| 746 | Main Street due to parking. Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 748 | Bridge Street. Bottom of Elliott Street. Bottom of Aire View. Bottom of Shed Side. Clog Bridge. | |||||||||
| 749 | All the zebra crossings - some drivers do not seem to see them. Crossing the bypass this needs a proper crossing. Junction of Belton Road and Keighley Road needs a roundabout. | |||||||||
| 750 | Access into Bolton Road at certain times of day, car parking should be stopped in the parking line opposite the Red Lion as this is where the congestion is caused. | |||||||||
| 751 | The road past the cemetery top of Howden Road. Cars speed along there constantly. | |||||||||
| 752 | The junction at Bolton Road/Dale View - would be improved by lowering garden walls to increase visibility and double yellow lines to prevent parking up to the junction. The junction/cross roads at Elliott Street, Clog Bridge which is immediately over the blind hump of the canal bridge. suggest mini roundabout and warning signs before bridge. speeding cars are a big problem both up and down Bolton Road - suggest flashing 30 sign. Also on uphill side and restrictions to parking especially near junction. | |||||||||
| 755 | Howden Road, Kirkgate, Elliott Street junction, traffic lights. Bolton road, Dale View, Pickard Lance junction. Reduction in speed limit through like Silsden to top of Bolton Road to 20mph. | |||||||||
| 756 | The corner of Howden Road, when coming out from Mill fold at the bottom because of all the cars parking you cannot see what is coming down Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 758 | Clog Bridge junction - traffic lights. Pedestrian crossing - no one stops for zebra. Bell Square - lights poor visibility. Maybe a one way system. | |||||||||
| 759 | Area around Tufton Street. Cobbled area has already been improved. Stop parking in this immediate area/vicinity. | |||||||||
| 760 | Bypass crossing. | |||||||||
| 761 | No parking on the high street. Increases traffic congestion, buses slowed down. | |||||||||
| 763 | Getting out of Howden Road to turn right it’s a nightmare. It can take you 20 minutes, cars just don’t let you out and having a zebra crossing right by it. Parking cars in Main street and to stop large vehicles like a bypass. | |||||||||
| 764 | The main danger spots are volume of heavy goods vehicles and tractors (these often way above the speed limit) travelling through Silsden. The tremendously outrageous speed of vehicles (not all) as they leave home to reach Clog Bridge and then Kirkgate (where they have to be more sensible and safer for those on foot). | |||||||||
| 765 | Accident waiting to happen the right turn from Howden Road onto Kirkgate. Cars come round at speed. Pedestrian crossing too near to bend. Witnessed many near accidents to pedestrians. Starting on crossing as cars swing round on to Kirkgate. Needs traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 766 | Roundabout on Aire Valley Road - possible pedestrian bridge. In Silsden junction of Elliot Street and Kirkgate - traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 767 | Crossing the dual carriageway. Traffic lights needed at the junction of Keighley Road/Howden Road and Elliott Street - short sight distance from hump back canal bridge. | |||||||||
| 769 | Problems at junctions - Bell Square/Bolton Road - Bell Square/Hillcrest Avenue/Bridge Street - Kirkgate/Elliott Street/Clog Bridge. Mostly down to bad driving, including poor vehicle positioning, and impatience. Hatched yellow boxes could be a solution. People ignoring double yellow lines and parking especially outside the Co-op - Hillcrest Avenue. Large commercial and/or poorly parked vehicles blocking traffic flow along Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 770 | Not my job to do this. | |||||||||
| 771 | The bypass, crossing this is dangerous especially at peak times. A footbridge would assist especially when waling to the limited bus service. | |||||||||
| 772 | The main street. | |||||||||
| 773 | Elliott Street, Tufton Street, Hothfield Street make Tufton and Hothfield one way. Double yellow line out of Tufton street. Hothfield Street dentist parking is terrible can not see traffic coming up Skipton Road leaving Hothfield street. | |||||||||
| 774 | The top of Skipton Road onto Kildwick is very dangerous. Dare I say lady drivers, I've seen a lot talking on phones while driving. Also delivery vans and wagons same problem. They actually don’t see pedestrians. Very scary. Most drivers too fast, need to reduce speed. Most local drivers aware of this. | |||||||||
| 775 | Black spot by the dentists at Hothfield Street especially at school closing time. Accident waiting to happen. Clog Bridge into Kirkgate - traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 776 | junction Ings Way to Howden Road just above the Toyota garage. Restrict parking so near to the junction along Ings Way. A lazy resident leaves his truck there most nights. | |||||||||
| 778 | A the junction of Bradley Road, with Skipton Road, it is very hard to cross due to parked cars (taxi usually) on Skipton Road causing huge visibility obstruction. This should have double yellow lines. As it is, you have to look left, right, straight on and far left to cross - its really dangerous. | |||||||||
| 779 | Cars zooming up narrow Bradley Road. No cars should be parked on Kirkgate because of congestion. Lorries, buses and juggernauts cannot pass each other and mount the kerbs causing cracks on the pavement. My leg has been grazed by a car mounting the kerb by the post office as it was trying to park. Walking along Kirkgate with vehicles mounting the kerb. | |||||||||
| 780 | the crossing at the station roundabout would benefit from a footbridge. | |||||||||
| 781 | Bypass no over bridge. It is dangerous crossing bypass. | |||||||||
| 783 | Uneven road on Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 784 | Elliott Street junction. Traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 785 | The top of Skipton Road as it narrows it is very difficult for the cars to pass each other. | |||||||||
| 787 | Elliott Street joining the main road, Howden Road joining the main road, Bridge Street joining the main road. | |||||||||
| 788 | Turning right from Elliott Street into Keighley Road. Turning right from Howden Road into Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 790 | The junction of Elliott Street/main Road/Clog Bridge - mini roundabout or traffic lights. Parking on both sides of Elliott Street for about 75 yards would help large vehicles turning. Lack of sightline at top of Woodside Road. Have to commit oneself no matter how one bends forward. Turning out from Briggate into Skipton Road/Bradley Road/Bridge Street. Bottom of Bradley Road generally as so many parked cars obscure the view up Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 791 | Congestion at the bottom of Skipton Road caused by cars parked on both sides of the road. Accessing Skipton Road from the top of Woodside Road some drivers do not slow down the worst offenders appear to be those travelling towards Silsden. | |||||||||
| 794 | Main Street parking should be abandoned as it is an accident waiting to happen. | |||||||||
| 795 | Parking on main street should not be allowed. | |||||||||
| 796 | Crossing road for bus at petrol station as the traffic in and out going too fast. | |||||||||
| 798 | Clog Bridge/Howden Road a dangerous bend in the road. | |||||||||
| 799 | Corner by mill at Clog Bridge. Junction of Elliott Street and Kirkgate with vehicles over bridge. | |||||||||
| 800 | Zebra crossings in Silsden people often ignore these I have been on the crossing many times when cars continue to drive straight on - pelican crossing. Roundabout at end of Belton Road would improve congestion of traffic. | |||||||||
| 801 | Crossing the bypass to get to the station. | |||||||||
| 803 | Tracking up Skipton Road to Kildwick is always difficult because of volume of traffic and lack of passing points. | |||||||||
| 804 | Junction of Bell Square and Bolton Road, traffic speeding down Bolton Road and Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 805 | Cross bypass from train station. Really bad up Howden Road - police need to put in a speed camera or start doing checks. | |||||||||
| 806 | The Aire Valley trunk road above. Its very dangerous to cross the road there as the cars don’t really seem to slow down. Many people have to cross it to get to the train station. Somebody I know was recently knocked over and seriously injured while trying to cross. | |||||||||
| 807 | Silsden/Steeton roundabout. | |||||||||
| 808 | Pedestrian crossing over the bypass to get to the station. | |||||||||
| 809 | By both schools, due to lots of people dropping off or parking at school. Also main street is bad due to parking on road, especially if a bus or wagon is going through which is often. Should ban parking on main street. | |||||||||
| 813 | Town centre as it’s a through road and parking creates blockages and I've occasionally witnessed silly manoeuvre through impatience due to poor parking - mounting pavements and blocking view pedestrian crossing. Speeding up and down Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 815 | Bottom of Howden Road from Co-op across to Bells Square. | |||||||||
| 816 | Exit to Kirkgate from Howden Road. Exit from Belton Road to main road towards river. Both require mini roundabouts as soon as possible. | |||||||||
| 817 | Turn out of Elliott Street. | |||||||||
| 819 | Hawkcliffe View in snow and ice. 2 road traffic accident this year alone solely because road not gritted as it used to be and grit bins empty. | |||||||||
| 820 | Zebra crossing in Silsden need changing to pelican crossing particularly the one near bottom of Howden Road outside betting shop. Seen quite a number of near misses where pedestrians are on the crossing and traffic has not stopped. | |||||||||
| 821 | Both my children need to cross Howden Road (Clog Bridge area) to catch the bus to South Craven each morning. I worry about how busy with traffic on this road is, and the speed that cars come around the bend down Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 824 | When driving from Kildwick, on the approach to Silsden the road narrows and many drivers approach at high speed or are inconsiderate. Could be improved with clearer warning signs possibly widening of road. | |||||||||
| 825 | Turning right from Howden Road. Tuning right from Elliott Street. Potential blind spot from Bell Square on to Bolton Road when turning right. | |||||||||
| 826 | Cringles park entrance bus stop. | |||||||||
| 828 | Cars should not be allowed to park in Kirkgate, they narrow the road and cause traffic congestion - especially at busy times of day. | |||||||||
| 830 | Main street/Elliott Street/Howden junction. Parking on canal bridge - double yellow lines both sides. Main Street parking outside Post Office etc. causes too much congestion, speed bumps, no parking. | |||||||||
| 831 | Skipton Road is often used by cars and motor bikes as a race track. | |||||||||
| 832 | There is difficulty I crossing toad at top of Briggate. Is there a possibility of a zebra crossing being made there. | |||||||||
| 833 | Elliott Street. | |||||||||
| 834 | Bolton Road can be hard to cross at busy times. More traffic calming up Howden Road/Bolton Road/Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 835 | Silsden high street can sometimes be a bottle neck and access from side turning tricky. Is it necessary to have parking in the main street when the car park is so near? One large petrol tanker or livestock lorry and you are held up. | |||||||||
| 837 | Suggest traffic lights at junction of Elliott Street. Keighley Road and Howden Road. Also at junction of Bridge Street and Bolton Road. Both of these probably just at peak traffic times Monday to Friday. | |||||||||
| 838 | Main street. | |||||||||
| 839 | The crossing at Clog Bridge badly sighted, too many road junctions/cars/lorries fight for position/turning and not seeing people crossing. Bottom end of Howden Road corner by carpet shop and speeding young drivers coming up Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 840 | Parking is causing a great problem in Silsden centre as buses, lorries and cars are mounting the pavements and I have nearly been knocked down on loads of occasions. Big vans park on Bolton Road with no room to get past with pram and dogs. There should be no parking outside Aire View school at school times. Dangerous. | |||||||||
| 841 | Pedestrian crossing facility to access railway station - bridge or subway. Don’t wait for someone to die crossing the dual carriageway. Regular parking of vehicles on the double white lines areas on both the canal and river bridges especially the canal bridge. Police enforcement is the only answer. | |||||||||
| 843 | Crossroads at North Street (Bell Square/Hillcrest Avenue) mini roundabout might help. Junction Clog Bridge/the main road/Elliott Street - traffic controlled lights as at junction Victoria Avenue and Skipton Road Ilkley. | |||||||||
| 844 | Howden Road, canal bridge and Elliott Street junction. | |||||||||
| 845 | Spencer Avenue is extremely dangerous. There have been a number of issue and accidents for young and old and damage to cars. I personally would be happy to contribute to the repair of the road. Please give this some attention. | |||||||||
| 846 | Parking in the main street outside the Post Office. The condition of the road outside the Co-op is shocking. | |||||||||
| 847 | The bridge over the railway, especially in winter. People stopping their cars to drop people off and people crossing from the car park, as they all seem to wear dark clothing for work. | |||||||||
| 848 | Crossing the bypass on foot. Ings Way on the bend where parked cars push you onto the wrong side. Double yellow lines are needed. Main road cars parked right around the bend. Parking should be restricted to just in front of shops nothing after the post box (after all parking on a bend is in violation of the highway code). | |||||||||
| 849 | Limit weight of wagons. Traffic lights at junction of Elliott Street and Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 850 | Pedestrian access across bypass - covered footbridge. Pelican crossing instead of zebra crossing. Restrictions on HGV's. | |||||||||
| 851 | The pedestrian crossing at junction of Howden Road and Kirkgate. Move crossing we do not need 3 in Kirkgate. Silsden should be a 20mph zone. | |||||||||
| 852 | The bottom of Howden road into the main Keighley Road, particularly turning right to Ilkley. | |||||||||
| 854 | 20mph restriction on Elliott Street/Woodside and Waterside estate. | |||||||||
| 855 | 20 mph areas on all Waterside and other estates. | |||||||||
| 856 | Not good for pedestrians to cross the bypass. | |||||||||
| 857 | Main street parking. | |||||||||
| 858 | The constant congestion in and through the main street due to HGV going through. Could they be stopped and stop using Silsden as a short cut. | |||||||||
| 860 | Post Office side it’s a wonder there has not been an accident, double yellow line would help. | |||||||||
| 862 | Junction of Howden Road and Kirkgate. Imagine this has been discussed at length already. It is a difficult one to solve. | |||||||||
| 863 | There is no pavement on the right hand side of Bolton Road above the allotments. Trying to cross Bolton Road to and from Brown Bank/North street is difficult. A pavement would enable pedestrians to cross away from the corner. | |||||||||
| 865 | Car movement (and buses) access Bell Square/Kirkgate/Bolton Road not good suggest traffic lights. Improved drainage near bus stop shelter Bridge Street gets flooded on a regular basis (kerb side). | |||||||||
| 866 | Crossing Bolton Road any time of day from the memorial/library garden to the top, cars are too many too fast. It’s a great danger surprised there aren't more accidents plus dangerous overtaking and mobile phone car divers use. Also another nightmare cars parked on kerbs/paths, paths are for people walking safely without having to dodge cars. | |||||||||
| 867 | Outside town hall zebra crossing. Outside schools. Junction of Bell Square. | |||||||||
| 869 | Out of Howden Road and turning right onto main road with zebra crossing encountered immediately, lights? Coming out of Elliott Street and turning right to canal bridge, lights? | |||||||||
| 870 | Bottom of Elliott Street trying to turn right is a nightmare as cars fly over bridge, should be a flashing sign showing motorists the speed they are doing to slow them down. | |||||||||
| 872 | Getting out at the top of Hothfield Street into Skipton Road is very dangerous, cars park right on the junction and you have to pull out into the middle of road to be able to see what is coming. The problem is mostly during day and appears to be people that are visiting the dentist and working at the dentist are parking without any thought for people that are pulling out onto Skipton Road, I always thought the highway code stated you had to park so many feet away from a junction. Some traffic coming over canal bridge into Silsden do so far too fast, I know of many people myself included that have had to move very quickly off the zebra crossing because they have no knowledge it is there. Perhaps more signs saying there is a zebra crossing before bridge or some form of traffic calming, the digital sign up Bolton Roads works very well at slowing traffic down. Perhaps that could be considered for the canal bridge area. | |||||||||
| 876 | Junction at end of Elliott Street needs traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 878 | The crossroads at Bridge Street and all up Skipton Road. Marking on the crossroads and better use of the indicators at Bridge Street, make one side of the bottom end of Skipton Road double yellow lines. | |||||||||
| 879 | Bolton road, there is no crossing and many cars and motorbikes speed down this road. I live on this road and I am fed up of cars, lorries and vans pulling onto the pavement outside my house constantly on a daily basis. Leaving only a gap of 2.3 feet from my door to the vehicle. | |||||||||
| 880 | Crossing the roundabout to train station, both directions. | |||||||||
| 881 | Road by the CO-OP outside Sunny Bank, it is crumbling away. Clog Bridge, Kirkgate, Elliott Street needs traffic lights, badly. | |||||||||
| 882 | Parking cars on main street. Lorries trying to get down main street but have trouble because of parked cars. | |||||||||
| 884 | Speed humps, big ones. | |||||||||
| 885 | Exiting Clog Bridge. Station access. | |||||||||
| 887 | The main road through Silsden should bar all large vehicles. The road is not wide enough for large lorries, trucks etc. These can be seen on a daily basis mounting the pavements. | |||||||||
| 888 | Coming out of Howden Road end out to main road nightmare. | |||||||||
| 890 | Coming out of Elliott Street and turning right. | |||||||||
| 891 | The Kirkgate and Briggate areas. Elliott Street, difficult access to Keighley Road and Kirkgate because of cross roads and bridge. Howden Road, difficult access. | |||||||||
| 892 | The main road through Silsden, particularly on a Saturday morning. Cars parked at the end of Dale View make it impossible for cars to get out safely and also driving in. | |||||||||
| 894 | The by-pass going to the train station, maybe a bridge or underpass. Howden Road by the laundrette could do with a crossing. | |||||||||
| 895 | Aire view, cobbles at the top, crazy at school times. Parking on Main Street should be stopped, people drive on pavements to park, avoid traffic. | |||||||||
| 896 | Elliott Street pulling out onto Keighley Road put traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 897 | New road, no use as one way, very dangerous. Suggestion, traffic to be one way on Aire View and new road, down Aire View and up new road, with resident parking only as I got a ticket due to not being able to park at own property. | |||||||||
| 900 | The bypass crossing, the bottom of Elliot Street and the bend in the road near the post office. | |||||||||
| 901 | Crossing by-pass very dangerous. Parking around schools, on corners, end of roads, blocking viewing points to cross, to cross for pedestrians. | |||||||||
| 902 | Parking along High Street in Silsden, by post office. Cars often get bumped there and increases congestion. I think Silsden is well provided by parking and do not think these bays are essential, especially between 7.30-9.00 am and 4.6pm. | |||||||||
| 903 | The junction of Kirkgate, Keighley Road, canal bridge, Howden Road, Elliott Street. Traffic lights necessary. | |||||||||
| 904 | Lack of footpath on route to Steeton, Silsden station at river bridge area. Left and road side from Silsden. | |||||||||
| 905 | At the bottom of Elliott Street and Howden Road that is a really bad junction, install traffic lights. The speed at which traffic goes up and down Bolton Road, speed cameras would stop this. | |||||||||
| 906 | Bell Square cross roads, needs better lines or signs. Junctions at the bottom, zebra, Elliott Street, Howden Road. Bell Square Kings Arms junction to Bolton Road. Speeding traffic up and down Bolton Road needs calming. Silsden main street stop parking but cal traffic speed. | |||||||||
| 909 | Main Street, Clog Bridge zebra crossing is difficult to see and need re painting. Motorists often do not stop. To get to the main street of Clog Bridge, Elliott Street and Bridge Street can take ages. Traffic lights may help or mini roundabout. | |||||||||
| 910 | Exit from Belton Road, traffic lights or mini roundabout. | |||||||||
| 913 | Howden Road, Elliott Street junction. | |||||||||
| 914 | Crossing road to reach station, a bridge would be best solution. | |||||||||
| 915 | Getting out at the bottom of Elliott Street. | |||||||||
| 916 | Stop parking for the Main Street. | |||||||||
| 918 | Where I live here at Cringles Park, exiting the park in both directions the speed of vehicles coming round the top bend, 2 to 3 seconds is all we have to either cross the road on foot or pull away in our cars, remember that the ages of residents here vary from 60ish to 90 years. | |||||||||
| 920 | The main problem seems to be bottom of Howden Road, Clog Bridge, onto main road, also Elliott Street junction with main road. The three pedestrian crossings on the main street are useful but motorists not familiar with the town do not seem to see them especially if traffic backed up. | |||||||||
| 921 | Crossing the bypass to get to the station. | |||||||||
| 922 | Some cars and lorries still do not take a lot of notice of speed limits. Main areas up Howden Road and area of bypass, I also thought that only lorries that were delivering in Silsden area were supposed to go through the centre. It seems that it is being used as a short cut rather than using the min routs. Therefore more control is required if I am correct. | |||||||||
| 924 | Difficulty getting out of Howden Road to turn right can be quite dangerous as people get very impatient. Traffic lights? Mini roundabout? | |||||||||
| 926 | Junction of Howden Road, Main Street and Elliott Street. A double mini roundabout, give way to traffic to you right, 20 mph speed throughout Silsden. Give pedestrians right of way on Main Street. Blue badge parking only. Traffic does not give way and blocks the junction when stopped. | |||||||||
| 927 | All street in Silsden should have 20 mph limit i.e. Howden Road, Ings Way, Elliott Street, Skipton Road. | |||||||||
| 929 | Kirkgate speed limit 20? | |||||||||
| 931 | Outside Cringles Park, you take your life in your hands, the speed they come round the bend. It should be 40 near Cringles and longer double yellow lines, there is 68 houses at Cringles and over 100 elderly people, if these houses were all down Bolton Road the speed limit would have to be 30. I have lost count the number of cars that crash into the stone wall coming up Bolton Road on the bend, a lot do not get reported. At Cringles Park we all live in bungalows not caravans. | |||||||||
| 932 | A mini roundabout at the junction by the Kings Arms and at the junction of Howden Road and Main Street. Also a pelican crossing is needed across the main road to the park entrance at the cat steps. | |||||||||
| 933 | Stop cars parking right up to road junction. | |||||||||
| 935 | The roundabout near the rail station - crossing from the station is a nightmare. | |||||||||
| 936 | Footpath by Silsden Football Club needs widening. Crossing the bypass to get to the station. Street lighting from the roundabout up to Silsden. | |||||||||
| 937 | The beck, when people feed the ducks, the ducks come onto the road which is usually busy. | |||||||||
| 938 | Traffic coming over canal bridge too fast as pedestrians crossing is close. I have personally been almost knocked down on the crossing. | |||||||||
| 939 | Silsden main street. | |||||||||
| 940 | Yes in main street in Silsden with too much street parking on both sides of the road. | |||||||||
| 944 | Walking to the station is difficult because of the bypass. A safe crossing would be appreciated. | |||||||||
| 947 | Access from Banklands Lane into Bolton Road. Access across bypass to station. | |||||||||
| 948 | Bolton Road traffic too fast. | |||||||||
| 949 | The centre of town is very congested nearly all the time because the parked cars limit the road to one-way traffic. We need a parking ban all along the main road and then unrestricted parking in the side streets. The main car park is a bit too small and always full but the pricing is reasonable. | |||||||||
| 950 | Pedestrian crossing of A629 at Steeton and Silsden roundabout making pedestrians access to railway station difficult. This would be greatly improved by the installation of a footbridge. Very poor road markings at Ings Road roundabout Keighley A629 making lane discipline difficult. | |||||||||
| 952 | Coming into Silsden over canal bridge, Elliott Street, zebra crossing and Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 953 | Silsden main street. Gloucester Avenue cars speeding. Silsden/Steeton bypass (crossing). | |||||||||
| 954 | Main street Silsden. Drop off point at station. | |||||||||
| 958 | Silsden main street on weekends, revellers running across road in front of cars for dares. Usually young and inebriated young people congregating outside pubs spilling out onto the road. | |||||||||
| 962 | Through the centre of Silsden we need yellow lines to stop parking its like a bottle neck. | |||||||||
| 963 | The parking of cars near the post office and near the beck causes danger when large lorries, buses etc. are trying to get past. | |||||||||
| 965 | Road junction at Keighley Road and Elliott Street with Howden Road. Bell Square with Bolton Road. Possible traffic lights needed. | |||||||||
| 968 | Speeding on Elliott Street. | |||||||||
| 969 | Most junctions through Silsden are dangerous. Right up to Tannery Corner then its good. | |||||||||
| 970 | Hothfield Street vehicles travel up and down too fast opposite a school. All times of day, but mostly in the evenings speed bumps please. | |||||||||
| 972 | Bridge Street - Bolton Road junction lower wall around Purple Garlic to allow sight line. | |||||||||
| 973 | Howden Road - speeding. Taxi drivers should watch their speeds. | |||||||||
| 974 | The junction at which Howden road merges into the main road through the village. Along with the access to Elliott Street many potential accidents are waiting to happen. Is it not possibly for some safety scheme to be, light? Mini roundabout? | |||||||||
| 975 | Lower end of Skipton Road - due to parking on both sides of road. Consider parking restrictions. | |||||||||
| 976 | Traffic lights needed at Clog Bridge/main road entrance. | |||||||||
| 978 | Danger spot turning right out of Daisy Hill at the bottom. It’s a blind spot. Toyota garage on Craven Drive so much parking and moving of cars. Zebra crossing outside betting shop. People turning right out of Howden Road often don’t look for pedestrians crossing. | |||||||||
| 980 | the main road at post office. I have witnessed car mirrors being broken off. Parking on bridge by canal. | |||||||||
| 981 | A footpath bridge over the road to get to the station. | |||||||||
| 984 | Cars coming over the canal bridge into Silsden sometimes quite fast. If your crossing the zebra crossing at bottom of Howden Road sometimes a bit scary. Bell Square cars can shoot out in front of you when your going up Bolton Road and there has been accidents there. | |||||||||
| 987 | Obviously Kirkgate is the major problem. Parking is essential for access to shops, but that narrows the road for HGV's etc. Access from Elliott Street would be improved by the placing of a mini roundabout on main road at that point. Speed on Skipton Road is also a hazard. | |||||||||
| 988 | Station drop off - very silly. | |||||||||
| 989 | The main Road through Silsden. I don’t know why cars have to park on it, you struggle to get vehicles past each other. Vehicles sometimes have to mount the pavement. Cars shouldn’t park on the main road, especially when there is a car park there (which is free for 30 minutes). | |||||||||
| 990 | Entry onto Skipton Road from Park Green and ash tree sticking into the road towards Silsden. | |||||||||
| 991 | Bolton Road the cars etc. go far too fast. The crossings cars don’t stop and because they can park on the main street that means some cars mount the pavement because when larger vehicles are there that means no room. | |||||||||
| 994 | I think you should stop parking on the main road in Silsden, maybe just have disabled parking. Just getting through Silsden at peck times is chaos. Maybe traffic lights at Howden Road for people getting out of there in a morning is hard. | |||||||||
| 996 | A6034 through Kirkgate very narrow due to parking. Difficult for large vehicles such as buses and emergency services to pass. Lower end of Skipton Road is the same. Suggest removing parking facility on Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 997 | Pedestrians having to cross the bypass. | |||||||||
| 998 | Main road. Bradley Road. Cringles Road. Hillcrest by Co-op. Main Road in and out of Silsden. | |||||||||
| 999 | Crossing Pickard Lane/Bolton Road could do with traffic lights there. Speed limit on Bolton Road is 30mph some do 100moh. Could do with speed cameras. Also crossing bypass roundabout could be done like Cross Hills. | |||||||||
| 1000 | Zebra crossing. Should be pelican crossing stop lights. | |||||||||
| 1001 | Pedestrian access to station with underpass or bridge. Parking in town centre. Suggest slightly widening road in conjunction with improving area adjacent to the beck I.e. by the Post Office. Elliott street situation. | |||||||||
| 1002 | Roundabout on the bypass. Pedestrian/cycle flyover or underpass. | |||||||||
| 1003 | Bell Square junction - lights. Silsden, Steeton roundabout. | |||||||||
| 1004 | Crossing dual carriageway from Silsden to the station. | |||||||||
| 1005 | Parking through high street in Silsden Kirkgate and by the fish shop. By Post Office should be stopped. We have a car park just at the top of Silsden. | |||||||||
| 1006 | Access from Howden Road to go up Kirkgate always difficult - impossible at times. Traffic lights would help. We really need a bypass before any more development. One road through Silsden is a bad situation especially in an emergency. | |||||||||
| 1008 | Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 1010 | Congested main street. | |||||||||
| 1011 | The junction with Clog Bridge/Elliot Street feel a mini roundabout may be helpful, also pedestrian crossing is too near Clog Bridge junction. Speeding cars on Howden Road - maybe 30mph signs on road. | |||||||||
| 1013 | Crossing the main road to the station. Bridge or traffic lights. | |||||||||
| 1015 | Bus usage of narrow road at top of Skipton Road near pump house (water). Make area 20mph limit. | |||||||||
| 1016 | Junction of Clog Bridge and Kirkgate needs lights. | |||||||||
| 1018 | None only the dual carriage way. | |||||||||
| 1019 | Kirkgate/Elliot Street/Clog Bridge junction. It needs a mini roundabout at the least - better still traffic lights activated by vehicles needing to exit Clog Bridge and Elliot Street. | |||||||||
| 1021 | The main problem is mainly the roundabout at Steeton and Silsden station between Silsden and Steeton, being a pedestrian. | |||||||||
| 1023 | Main street parking. Parking inconsiderately on both sides of roads especially by the football field. | |||||||||
| 1024 | Main road past Cringles Park. Residents are mainly elderly and despite signs drivers disregard them. This problem has been raised many times. | |||||||||
| 1026 | I think we have enough houses in Silsden. What about schools when there are more children, cannot build on them much more. Should have been a new school years ago. | |||||||||
| 1028 | Pedestrian tunnel or footbridge across Aire Valley trunk road by Steeton and Silsden roundabout. | |||||||||
| 1029 | Crossroads, Silsden to Keighley. Howden Road across to Elliot Street (before canal bridge). | |||||||||
| 1031 | Parking on residential streets creates many hazards especially for very young and old. | |||||||||
| 1034 | Elliot Street - Clog Bridge - main road. Traffic lights would improve this junction. | |||||||||
| 1035 | Bolton Road by outside Cringles park. | |||||||||
| 1037 | Howden Road, dangerous corner at Waterloo Hill Apartments. Since the alteration of road. | |||||||||
| 1038 | The exit from Howden Road onto Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 1039 | Steeton Silsden roundabout. | |||||||||
| 1045 | Bell Square when crossing to the supermarket. | |||||||||
| 1046 | The congestion in Kirkgate caused by parking and the number of HGVs using us as a short cut to A1 etc. | |||||||||
| 1050 | Parking in Skipton Road. Car owners parking within 10 meters (32ft) of road junctions. Particularly the corners of Tufton Street and Hathfield Street. This makes exiting these streets very dangerous as one cannot see traffic travelling either way. | |||||||||
| 1051 | Junction of Airedale Factors to Brownbank Lane. | |||||||||
| 1052 | The main road through Silsden. | |||||||||
| 1054 | Never go out alone. | |||||||||
| 1057 | Spencer Avenue full of holes. The crossing at Steeton bypass. | |||||||||
| 1060 | Bell Square - Bolton Road. Howden Road - main street. Traffic lights at both would slow traffic through the town. | |||||||||
| 1061 | Spencer Avenue. Road surface crack and depressions upto 6' deep in parts where vehicles slalom their journey to avoid the troughs. Need to, at least, cover salient area with spot tarmacing before accidents occur. | |||||||||
| 1062 | Put double yellow lines from Post Office to the flower shop so articulated lorries can get through and introduce parking from Twigs to cafe instead! | |||||||||
| 1064 | Bell Sq unction and state of road outside Co-op. Motorists failure to stop at crossing outside Town Hall. Clog Bridge junction. | |||||||||
| 1066 | Volume of traffic using Kirkgate and parked cars, junction of Elliot Street, Keighley Road and Clog Bridge. | |||||||||
| 1067 | Kirkgate is far too narrow for cars to be parked on both sides. | |||||||||
| 1068 | Crossing near roundabout on bypass. | |||||||||
| 1073 | Speed is the worst thing in Silsden. | |||||||||
| 1074 | Too much speed through Silsden. | |||||||||
| 1077 | The end of Bolton Road on to Keighley Road and Howden Road into the village. | |||||||||
| 1078 | Bolton Road/Bell Square junction. Elliot Street junction. Parking in Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 1079 | Bolton Road. Bell Square, Hillcrest Avenue as taxi use this like a bus depot to park, turn or park on double yellow lines at Co-op door. | |||||||||
| 1080 | Exit from Elliot Street onto main road. Maybe traffic lights (part time). | |||||||||
| 1081 | Zebra crossing by Howden Road. | |||||||||
| 1084 | Crossing on foot the bypass to get to the station highly dangerous. | |||||||||
| 1086 | Road end where Howden Road joins the main street (Briggate), congestion very bad in the morning and tea time, especially when turning across oncoming traffic. However, traffic lights, similar to those at the junction of the 'The Flappitt' public house on Halifax Road. | |||||||||
| 1088 | Main street (parking issue!). Clog Bridge junction. Cobbled area (refurbished mill) very dangerous to cars passing both ways. | |||||||||
| 1089 | Silsden main street. | |||||||||
| 1091 | Bell Square. Kings Arms junction. Kirkgate. | |||||||||
| 1092 | Zebra crossing by Town Hall. Cannot always see people waiting there if there is queuing traffic (pelican crossing). | |||||||||
| 1093 | Turning right at the end of Elliot Street onto main Keighley road due to speed they come over the canal bridge. | |||||||||
| 1094 | Crossing to and from the railway station/Steeton - some form of overpass as underpasses appear unsafe during quieter times. | |||||||||
| 1095 | Parking within 20 yards of Dale View, Pickland Lane, Bolton road (yellow lines). Prevent parking around the bend near duck pond, this area is a constant danger especially when cars exit opp Post Office. | |||||||||
| 1096 | Getting out of Bradley Road into Skipton Road - too many parked cars blocking view. Also quite a few unadopted roads are seriously dangerous to walk on and motor. | |||||||||
| 1098 | The centre of Silsden is becoming a rat run because of the use of sat navs by having lorry drivers trying to save fuel and time. It could be possible to restrict by weight, except for deliveries, why not! | |||||||||
| 1100 | The Silsden bypass, I cannot understand why they were allowed to not include an underpass or footbridge over it. I put my life at risk twice a day crossing this road, the traffic will not stop for you! The traffic in front of you stops but the other lanes keep going, it's an accident waiting to happen! | |||||||||
| 1101 | Elliot Street/Howden Road junction, very busy at school times. Also it's very difficult to cross Howden Road near Clog Bridge safely because of lack of visibility from both directions plus it's made worse by frequent parking on the cobbled area reducing vision even more. | |||||||||
| 1102 | Getting out of Howden Road and the Co-op. | |||||||||
