Further traffic calming measures could be introduced in a road which has claimed four lives in less than a year.

The police, local councillors and Kirklees highways department worked with the residents of Spen Lane in Gomersal to introduce measures following the deaths of three teenagers in an accident involving a car and a bus last September.

Extra chevrons were added to the road, as were 'Slow' signs, 'S-bend' signs and a gripped road surface. But following the death of 27-year-old motorcycist Benjamin Horton - whose bike collided with a bus on May 26 - police say they will look again at what can be done on the road.

PC Paul Walton, from Heckmondwike road traffic police, said: "We will use the pro-laser mobile cameras up there but there are no plans in the immediate future to put fixed cameras on that road.

"It may mean further traffic calming, for example speed plateaux, or sleeping policemen as they are more commonly known."

He said they were still waiting for plans of the proposed Tesco supermarket in nearby St Peg Lane, Cleckheaton, which would have a dramatic effect on traffic in the area.

"We are looking at weight restrictions so that lorries which are visiting the supermarket will go through Cleck-heaton and not Gomersal," he said. "Spen Lane is not suitable for a lot of heavy traffic."

Maureen King, 70, of Spen Lane in Gomersal, helped form the Spen Lane Action Group following the first accident last September. She said she had never seen Spen Lane as busy as it was at the moment.

"We wanted the traffic calming for the youngsters that are getting killed, but we just don't know what else to do now," she said. "People are still getting killed. It's horrific."
