Residents on a Clifton street that lorries used to 'rattle down' have welcomed road safety improvements.
The changes, made by Nottingham City Council for £50,000, were completed in Green Lane towards the end of 2021.
It saw a complete resurfacing of the road, with additional speed bumps put in place as well as an extra zebra crossing near Clifton Triangle retail park.
The alterations have been widely praised by locals, who said lorries used to "rattle down" the street due to the poor condition of the road.
"It has improved a lot since the square speed bumps were taken out," said Linda Parffement, whose mum, Erika, lives on the road.
"It's been good because the lorries used to rattle down the road at night, the road got to a point where it wasn't safe for people. It was nice to have some peace whilst the road was closed off - it was lovely"
One of the lorry drivers, Laureentau Anghel, who lives in Green Lane, told Nottinghamshire Live he was "pleased" with the changes.
However, the 45-year-old added: "I didn't think it was as bad as some people made out. British Gypsum (a company whose lorries used the road regularly) paid for a lot of the damage they caused."
Another resident, who wished to remain anonymous, said he was "happy with the changes".
"I didn't feel like it was ever a major issue but traffic did get quite bad at times," added the 39-year-old photographer.
However, others felt not enough changes had been made.
Christine Fisher, who was visiting her mum, said more speed bumps should be added on the road close to Southchurch Drive.
"Some cars come speeding down here," she said.
"They all rush down this section as there's no bumps. it means my mum struggles to cross the road at times. It could do with another hump and maybe a zebra crossing. Hopefully they address the problem."
A spokesperson for Nottingham City Council said: "The positive feedback is welcome and road safety remains a priority for the council – it’s constantly being monitored across the city."
