North Killingholme is enhancing road safety with the installation of a new speed indicator device, funded through a £2,395 community grant. The device will be positioned in a key area of the village to encourage drivers to monitor their speed and slow down in residential zones where families and older residents regularly walk.
The initiative follows concerns raised by residents about road safety and aims to create a calmer, more pedestrian-friendly environment.
This project is part of the Community Grant Fund, a wider initiative that has supported local projects since 2011. The fund has contributed millions to community-led projects across North Lincolnshire, helping towns and villages improve facilities, support young people, and enhance local wellbeing.
Over the years, the scheme has supported a wide range of organisations, including sports clubs, youth groups, local charities, and parish councils, with grants available to both organisations and individuals driving positive change in sport, art, and culture.
The addition of the speed indicator in North Killingholme marks another small but meaningful step in making local roads safer while strengthening the village’s community spirit.
