Report by Corporate Director Environment & Place (CMDHM 16).

 

To consider proposed 20mph speed limits.

 

Decision:

The Cabinet Member for Highway Management AGREED to approve the proposed introduction of 20mph speed limits as advertised.

Minutes:

The report presents responses to a statutory consultation on the proposed introduction of 20mph speed limits in Berrick Salome.

 

Cllr Gant invited speakers to address the meeting and responded to the points made in their statements.

 

Cllr Gant agreed with officers’ responses to objectors on the scheme by saying that a lower limit on the link to the village at Rokemarsh has formed part of the Benson consultation where it was proposed that the 50 mph limit on the B4009would replace the national speed limit on that link. The connecting link at Roke was longer and the existing rural limit was deemed appropriate.

 

The Cabinet Member for Highway Management AGREED to approve the proposed introduction of 20mph speed limits as advertised.
