Full council record
Purpose
The purpose of this proposal is to revoke
sections of 30 mph by virtue of street lighting for which a Traffic
Regulation Order is no longer required, to ensure consistent and
accurate descriptions for the lengths of road contained
herein.
The proposal seeks to enable the future implementation of an
alternative speed limit that better reflects the road’s
character, usage, and safety requirements. These revocations are
taking place to ensure consistency across the network and allow the
police to enforce the speed limit effectively.
There will be no changes to the restrictions or their extent on
site. Therefore, drivers will not be subject to any changes as a
result of this proposal.
