Purpose

In order to reduce the speed of vehicles
approaching the new junction, the existing 30mph speed limit
requires extending eastwards.
 
The purpose of this proposal is to reduce the
existing 40mph speed limit along Queensway, reverting the section
in advance of the new access to 30mph by virtue of street
lighting.
