Appleby residents are stepping up their fight against speeding motorists as three new speed indicator devices are set to be installed across the village – funded through a community grant.

The £10,195 project has been backed with £8,979 from North Lincolnshire Council’s Community Grant Fund, with the Parish Council adding £1,216 to get the scheme over the line.

Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: “Residents have been clear that speeding is a concern, and this project shows what happens when local people take action to make their community safer – and the council back them to take control.

“These new indicators will help tackle dangerous driving and send a strong message that Appleby is a place that looks out for its neighbours.”

The devices will be positioned at key points to alert motorists, reinforce speed limits and encourage safer, more considerate driving through the village.

The speed indicator devices have been proven to cut average speeds and improve driver awareness, with studies across the UK showing measurable reductions in speeding – particularly in rural village settings like Appleby.

Cllr Neil Poole, deputy leader and cabinet member for highways, said: “This investment gives Appleby practical tools to slow traffic and keep people safe. It’s a smart, community-led solution that will make a real difference on the ground.”

Since it launched in 2011, the Community Grant Fund has powered hundreds of local projects across North Lincolnshire – helping villages, clubs and community groups to bring their ideas to life.

From youth sports and local arts to village halls and safety schemes like this one, the grants are all about strengthening communities and delivering what matters to local people.
