LETTER: Speed cameras need to be on rat run too

Reference the new speed cameras on the new A16 from Peterborough to Spalding, I think that there should be speed cameras on the old A1073 (James Road).

Drivers use this road as a rat run to overtake the slower lorries on the A16. The speed that cars and white van men go is well in excess of the 50mph.
There have been a few deaths in the past few years on this road (A1073), but nothing has been done to slow the traffic down.
