PCSO Sarah Stanley is calling for more volunteers to join the Alderley Edge Speedwatch group.
They are looking to recruit additional members to the team to help monitor and record the vehicle details for those who are driving above the 30mph limit on the busiest roads in the village.
PCSO Stanley said "Myself and the existing team would like more members so we can regularly be out in Alderley raising awareness and educating those who are caught speeding.
"All we need is someone who can spend an hour once every two to four weeks during the week to help out. If anyone is interested they can contact myself via email."
Volunteers, who are trained in the use of a speed gun, spend an hour whenever they can and record the speed of passing vehicles on four main roads in the village: Brook Lane, Ryleys Lane, Congleton Road and Macclesfield Road. They record vehicles that are traveling in excess of 36mph in a 30 mile speed limit, motorists are then sent a warning letter from the police.

Here's what readers have had to say so far. Why not add your thoughts below.
Rather than having indignant residents standing on street corners why don't we make the streets impossible to speed on, using traffic islands, lights, pedestrian crossings and parked vehicles as barriers?
Agreed, more traffic lights, pedestrian crossings, speed signs would make a difference. I don't know why this hasn't been done on this road yet to be honest... So many people are concerned. The police are aware of the situation.
