Fromefield Traffic Survey

Thank you for taking the time to answer this survey

Local residents in Fromefield are worried about traffic speeds and road safety in the area. We live along the main route into the town centre for a lot of traffic. It's also an important space for pedestrians (particularly school and college students), a lively community and home to many of Frome's services and sports facilities.

We have set up this survey so that we can hear from people who travel through this area. What have you experienced as a pedestrian, cyclist, driver or passenger? It should take you about 5 minutes to answer the 9 questions below.

This survey has been developed by Fromefield residents with Frome Town Councillor Lizzie Boyle and Mendip District Councillor Adam Boyden. The survey is anonymous so you will not be asked for your personal information.
