The whole 20's Plenty movement is driven not from the top, but from the grass roots aspiration within communities to make them better places to be and live. It is the actions of individual members of public, councils and professionals who see that when public spaces are less dominated by motor vehicles then they become better for all, including those within the vehicles.
You can become one of the tens of thousands in the movement by talking within your community with friends and associates about how we can all change our behaviour to go a little bit slower and make the community a whole lot better.
You can also find out more, set up a campaign, work with others or simply make a donation.
And now we have added a new feature and you can email a decision-maker for your area directly.
Just choose from the links above.

Facebook TwitterThe primary school is on the main A6 running through our village. There is a local high traffic volume, especially with large lorries and bus’.
In the past 4 weeks two large vehicles have gone through a red light on the pelican crossing outside the school. The pavement is narrow and vehicles will come past very close to the curb.
I have spoken to the Council who stated there is nothing they can do as there are the triangle school road signs and a pelican crossing.
Can you advise me as to what I can do to persuade the Council 20mph is necessary in making the walk to School safer for our young children?
Kind regards. Leanne.
We would be delighted to help and will make contact by email.

Of course any isolated and limited intervention endorses speeding up where such and intervention does not exist. We far prefer a wide-area implementation with light-touch engineering to act as visual rather than posterial calming where necessary. With community engagement and understanding that driving slower makes the community better then much more can be achieved.
