PEOPLE who live, work and travel in Maldon district are being asked to make their views known on the future of policing the county's roads.

Anyone worried about speeding or road safety in their area can now have their say by taking part in a short online survey.

The Government is currently reviewing roads policing and what the future of traffic law enforcement may look like. As part of this review, the Department for Transport is trying to find out what makes a difference and how resources can be used most effectively.

To support the review, a national public survey designed to understand public perception of road safety and roads policing has been opened.

The poll seeks to understand local communities' thoughts on law enforcement on the roads, risks to safety and fixed penalty notices.

The results will be used by the Department of Transport to support future planning and shared with Essex Police, Fire Crime Commissioner, Roger Hirst, after the survey has closed.

Mr Hirst said: "More people in Essex die on our roads than in any other kind of accident or crime. That's why it is so important that we contribute to this review. Many residents and local councillors contact me with concerns about road safety and it's a topic that comes up regularly at our public forums, so I know it is important to many people.

"The survey only takes a few moments of your time but could make such a difference in the future."

People have until Wednesday, 30 September at 5pm to complete the survey. Have your say and complete the survey here.
