Do you have an opinion about 20mph speed limits in residential areas? Derbyshire County Council is asking people for their views on the issue as part of a review.
DCC scrutiny committee is looking at 20mph speed limits following requests from a number of communities for them in their areas. The review is only looking at 20mph speed limits on residential roads that are not on major through routes and that don’t have speed humps.
The consultation is online and closes on 30 September 2015.
In the survey residents are asked if they support or oppose 20mph speed limits, and if they think they make residential areas safer, reduce pollution and noise and make areas better places to live.
Councillor Kevin Gillott, chair of the Improvement and Scrutiny Places Committee, said:
“We’d like to hear from as many people as possible, whether they think 20mph speed limits are a good idea or a bad idea.”
Before any 20mph speed limits are introduced DCC would carry out consultation with the local community.
