Purpose

The proposals are being pursued as part of an
s38 Agreement under the Highways Act 1980 as part of a new housing
development which will introduce further traffic movements at the
junction of Wheelton Lane with Atlantean Drive.
The purpose of the proposed 20mph speed limit is to improve the
safety of motorised and non-motorised users, mitigating additional
traffic flows from the new housing development on Wheelton Lane
with a reduction in the speed limit.
