Family who suffered crashes at their home involving tractor, car and lorry, say they want better road safety outside their house
A couple who had a tractor smash through their living room in 2020 say they want better road safety outside their house in Shropshire after an increase in problems.
The authority said it was "aware of concerns around road safety" and was speaking to parish and borough councillors, with ideas including "new signage, resurfacing and road markings". The current speed limit for the stretch by the Jones's village home is 60mph, although in 2021 another part of the B5062 was changed to 50mph amid safety concerns.
In 2015, a motorcyclist was killed on the stretch of road by the Jones's house and a year later a car skidded through their garden.
