SOME drivers using Dutson Road in Launceston are travelling at more than 60mph and around one in four break the 30mph speed limit, according to a recent survey carried out by Cornwall Council.

The road has been described as one of the most dangerous in Cornwall as it is used by many schoolchildren and families despite having no pavement for much of its length.

"Many residents have been asking for action to be taken to slow traffic down and the recent SpeedVisor survey was the first step in making that happen," said Alex Folkes, Liberal Democrat Councillor for Launceston Central.
