The Cabinet Member for Highway Management APPROVED as advertised the proposed 20mph Speed Limit

The Cabinet Member considered a report presenting responses received to a statutory consultation on proposed 20mph speed limits on the new residential roads to the west of the A423 Southam Road.

Councillor Andrew Gant stated that it would be almost impossible to exceed 20 mph on the residential roads off the through road, so he believed that the only question was really about the through road.  The policy and bus company had made their usual points.

The proposal only affected about 200m of the through road.  He was happy to approve while noting that the effects would be monitored.

DECISION

The Cabinet Member for Highway Management APPROVED as advertised the proposed 20mph Speed Limit.
