According to data from crashmap.co.uk, six incidents have been recorded on the road in the past five years.
All of these collisions have been rated as ‘slight’ incidents, however, meaning they are typically minor crashes and bumps.
So far, 18 people have signed the plea.
Residents have until November 30, 2020, to add their name to the petition, which can be found here: http://democratic.bracknell-forest.gov.uk/mgEPetitionDisplay.aspx?ID=50&RPID=46837014&HPID=46837014
