FIXMYSTREET IN NP12 1QP
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of NP12 1QP:
Fleur de Lis village requires an active pedestrian crossing, 29th April
Fleur de lis has no active crossing points. It is a busy village used by people of all ages and abilities, particularly near the community centre which regularly holds events for children. Currently people have to dart across the road to avoid being run over. Crossing the road is often very difficult due to illegal parking, speeding, and traffic. There is no sane reason to deprive people in the village of such a basic amenity as a pedestrian crossing, and it is long overdue. The recent death of a pedestrian due to a dangerous driver in the vicinity adds to the urgency with which this should be addressed.

No active or passive pedestrian crossings for 2 primary schools, 4th March
In early 2022 the school crossing patrol for pupils attending Ysgol Gymraeg Trelyn and Pengam Primary (essentially opposite each other along Commercial Street) retired. She was not replaced and Caerphilly Council's assessment found that children did not require a safe method of crossing this road, despite endemic speeding and dangerous driving, illegal parking, frequent HGV usage etc.
An elderly lady was killed just down the road from here after being run over by a man driving dangerously just a couple of weeks ago in 2/24, indicating how urgent this issue is. Caerphilly Council still refuse to provide a safe method of crossing this road despite this tragedy, and pupils are endangered unnecessarily.
An ideal solution would be to install traffic lights to enable safe crossing along Commercial Street between the schools with an SCP assisting children as needed. This would also help with the issue of speeding. Failing that, a pedestrian crossing would still be an improvement on the current situation.
