Greenland Road in Sheffield is built as a race track for deadly speed. People are regularly seriously injured. People have been killed.

Very GOOD LUCK to everyone who has to cross the 50mph Parkway Drive in Darnall across the exit of a roundabout. 🤞

If you want to make your own luck you can get your stickers at gosquabs.square.site

Good morning and GOOD LUCK to everyone who has to cross Meadow St with no crossings at the junction on Netherthorpe Road. 🤞

What would you like to add to a wait button? We’re open to ideas…

On 1 July 2008 an 84-year-old woman was killed crossing this slip road to Sheffield Parkway in Handsworth. 17 years later it is still just as dangerous. But now it has some vital GOOD LUCK signs 🤞

Glad everyone around this crash had enough LUCK to avoid injury. Do we need more than good luck on Greenland Road? www.facebook.com/reel/1994527...

GOOD LUCK to everyone crossing this road by Lidl on Halifax Road, Sheffield. Traffic lights for vehicles but people have to guess and run for it. 🤞

Sheffield’s ring road is built for deadly speed. In 2013 19 year-old Cian Pace was killed when the car he was in crashed near Netherthorpe Primary School. In 14 years 7 people have lost their lives on the 40mph sections of the ring road. Around 85 more have been seriously injured.

Do you need to cross Catley Road next to Greenland Road in Darnall, Sheffield? Sorry, there are several directions of vehicle traffic that need their go, and there’s no crossing for people. So, GOOD LUCK! 🤞

GOOD LUCK to pedestrians on Talbot Street, near the entrance to the student block of Park Hill.

GOOD LUCK to everyone crossing at Rock Street and Pitsmoor Road where the traffic has lights but you can’t see until vehicles whip around the corner.

Where Archer Road, Bannerdale Road and Abbeydale Road meet and pedestrians are given no option but to take their chances. #sheffield @flockyousquabs.bsky.social

GOOD LUCK to people using this dropped kerb crossing point on Broadfield Road, opposite a ginnel leading towards abbeydale road. It’s near a blind bend that motorists drive round really quickly. 🤞 Somewhere you want to add some luck? Get yours at gosquabs.square.site ✨

Today @sheffcitycouncil.bsky.social agreed a new 20mph limit area in Netherthorpe, alongside this road. It still excludes this lethal road. Can we say we are trying to achieve Vision Zero?

Whenever these new crossings at Rockingham St and West St happen it will be great to see!

In May 2018 Naveed Fazal was killed when he apparently lost control of his car at “over 60mph” on Abbeydale Road South. The coroner couldn’t see how speed was a factor. But did ask SCC to ensure the “speed limit is within safe levels.” Years later the road continues to enable lethal speed.

Good luck to anyone trying to cross (or drive through) Walkley Bank Road junction with Morley St. A regular spot for crashes with the wall rebuilt again a year ago.

A warm “Good luck” to all pedestrians needing to cross Whitehouse Lane at Langsett Road. There’s no gap in the traffic for you so hope you can work out when to run for it. 🤞🤞🤞

Where do Birmingham pedestrians need some extra luck? Get it signed up from gosquabs.square.site @betterstreetsforbirmingham.org @shivajishivalaw.bsky.social @johnmunro.bsky.social @safestreetsnow.bsky.social

Birmingham, welcome to the flock! Good luck, especially to students getting from halls and bus stop to Matthew Boulton College across the dual carriageway A47. 🤞🤞🤞

A very warm welcome to Sheffield city centre and good luck to people going to or from the bus station. 🤞 🤞 🤞

😋 💋

Who’s next? How many deaths does @sheffcitycouncil.bsky.social need before making this road safe?

Seven people have been killed on Sheffield's 40mph ring road in the last 14 years. Three were people crossing the road at pedestrian crossings. 2011: a man, 37, crossing at Morpeth St 2011: a woman, 20, crossing at Broomspring Ln 2013: Cian Pace, 19, in a car near Netherthorpe Primary ...🧵

People walking and wheeling on Cooks Wood Road! Have you thought of flying 🕊️? Otherwise you can take your chances in the traffic. GOOD LUCK! 🤞

At 1:45pm on Monday 20th Sept 2021 a 42-year-old man was crossing Prospect Road when he was hit and killed by a man driving a car. In 2008 on Myrtle Road, 150m down, a 52-year-old man was also killed while crossing. When SCC brought in a 20mph limit in this area these roads were excluded.

😎 A nice sunny day to walk across Glossop Road to get to uni. It might be an injury hot-spot but without a crossing you'll have to make do with a cheerful "GOOD LUCK". 🤞

Someone living nearby says: "truly dangerous. Unless you can run you are risking life and limb crossing these junctions."

On 19 October 2015, 24-year-old architecture student Robert Henry was cycling up Crookes Valley Road when he was hit and killed by the driver of a van. Last week SCC agreed a "safety scheme" here. The road will continue to have no protected cycle space, and will keep its lethal 30mph speed limit.

Hope you’re feeling lucky if you need to cross Dykes Hall Road in Hillsborough. 🤞

When you regularly have to run for it when 🚗 don’t stop at 🦓: wish everyone a bit of luck 🤞 Get yours at gosquabs.square.site

Trying to get around Pitsmoor and need to cross Cooks Wood Road? Good luck! 🤞

Parkwood Springs! 🌄 Jewel in the Outdoor City's crown! 👑 And a "nightmare" to cross Shirecliffe Road to get into. Good luck! 🤞

Petition for junction at Minna Road: www.change.org/p/install-sa... "It’s unbelievably difficult and nerve wracking to navigate as a pedestrian, let alone with 3 small children in tow.... Really makes you feel worthless that the powers that be will let you struggle in such dangerous circumstances."

In 2019, 85 year-old June Buckley was crossing Hollinsend Road and was hit with a car. She later died of her injuries. The coroner found the road was unsafe and instructed SCC improve it. SCC added some barrier. Today it still has drivers turning from a 40mph road and no pedestrian phase.

Good luck to everyone needing to cross Gleadless Road for Gleadless Medical Centre or Newfield Green Clinic. 🤞🤞🤞

“PEDESTRIANS GOOD LUCK”

On 9 March 2019 Paul Brummett, 61, was crossing the Prince of Wales Road dual carriageway where there was no suitable crossing and was hit with a car. He later died of his injuries. An SCC analysis of the city's most dangerous locations said it "would be difficult/expensive to treat".

Glad to see another School Street! 😍 And hopefully these kids can also be put first so they can cross 40mph dual carriageways, and 30mph roads by their school which have no crossings where there have been multiple serious injuries of children getting to/from school. Until then, good luck kids! 🤞🤞🤞

Some extra luck 🤞 for people crossing turning traffic at Rutland Road, Sheffield. Make your own luck at gosquabs.square.site

In Sheffield Lane Top on Barnsley Road we may not have crossings, but we do have plenty of 🤞🤞🤞. 🎵 All you need is luck (Doo do-do-do-do!)🎵

To celebrate #EarthDay we are going green and offering extra sustainable🤞🍀 to all those using our roads. 🍀🍀🍀

Good luck 🤞 to everyone crossing around the London Road junction with Boston Street in Sheffield. Who needs crossing signals when you have 🤞🤞🤞? ✨Is there somewhere you need to add a bit of extra 🤞? Get your signs at gosquabs.square.site

A heartfelt “good luck” to everyone trying to cross at the Scarsdale Road junction on Chesterfield Road, Sheffield—especially children and families at Woodseats Primary. 🤞🤞🤞

Hi people who aren’t waiting for the green man signal and just getting on with your lives! Would you mind stopping to read this 6 lines-long sign, then wait for the green man, then go and get on with your lives? It would be terrible if something happened to you and we had to blame you for that too.

👀 Maybe our reading lots of words isn’t so good, being pigeons. Would a simpler message be clearer? West Street, Sheffield.

On 27 Feb 2018, 20 year-old student Mohammed Elashry was crossing the A57 and was killed with a truck. On 19 Dec 2008, David and Sally Firth, 43 and 41, were crossing the A57 Whitham Road and were killed by being hit with two cars. This road is excluded from surrounding 20mph limits.

You can see it in the background here: behind a 30 sign like this is a 20 sign. The 30 marks an end of an area given a safer 20mph limit; choosing not to include the deadly main road. Behind each death there are political decisions which make our roads dangerous and deadly. That can change.
