An Important Message from
Tamar2Moor Community Partnership
The latest year of validated
injury collision data for the A388 shows there were eight collisions where
someone was killed or seriously injured. In light of this, and as a
result of concerns raised by the Tamar to Moor Community Area Partnership, a toolkit has been developed to promote key road safety messages across the area as
part of an A388 Community Road Safety Campaign.
With the above in mind, the A388 Road Safety Toolkit has now been launched. This toolkit has images and wording which can be used by you, and your community, to support the Campaign which will take place over the next few months. A digital version of the toolkit and all the images can also be accessed here - Safer roads - Cornwall Council

Most collisions on the A388 over the last ten years have been caused by driver/rider error and not paying enough attention to the road ahead. You cannot predict what other road users are planning to do, so stay alert, avoid distraction and keep your eyes on the road.

Linkinhorne, a rural parish in South East Cornwall, stretches from the River Inny in the north-east to the expanses of Bodmin Moor in the west. The River Lynher meanders across the Parish through secluded valleys and by gently rolling fields.
The three largest villages are Minions, Rilla Mill and Upton Cross; there are also the settlements of Henwood, Linkinhorne and Bray Shop as well as dozens of other small hamlets such as Caradon Town, Downgate, Ley Mill, Plushabridge, etc.
The western parts of Linkinhorne parish lie on the eastern slopes of Bodmin Moor, an area of granite moorland, rising to over 380m above sea level at Sharptor, above the Cheesewring, a granite outcrop of apparently precariously balanced rocks. The highest village in the parish is Minions, at 302m asl.
Travelling east from the Moor, the land drops to the gentler hills and river valleys which cover most of the parish. Most of this land is agricultural or woodland; the climate is mild and rarely is there prolonged cold in the winter - snow and frost rarely lasting more than a day or two.
There are no major roads in the parish. Two classified roads, the B3254, running north-south and the B3257 running northwest-southeast cross the parish, providing road links to Launceston, Liskeard and Callington.
