Astounding results in Wales just one week after 20mph rollout show a 2.9mph reduction in average speeds.

One week to the day after Wales introduced widespread 20mph limits across the country, Agilysis have released a report* analysing the impact of traffic speeds over hundreds of miles of road.

Reprinted from THE SUNDAY TIMES 24^th September 2023

A grassroots campaign that started in a terrace in Cheshire has achieved a big milestone with Wales’s new limit. It’s only a matter of time before the whole UK follows suit, says its founder

Are you interested in the adoption of 20mph limits in urban and village areas?

Do your responsibilities include any of these :-

• Developing speed limit policies?
• Setting speed limits?
• Developing active travel?
• Public Health?
• Transport equality?
• Community cohesion?
• Noise abatement?
• Emission control?
• Road danger reduction?
• Child mobility?

Or maybe you just want your place to be a better place to be?

If so then the 20's Plenty for Scotland will bring together experienced and respective speakers presenting on issues that will help you understand the place for 20mph limits in your places.

This conference will highlight both the national 20mph limit set by Wales in September and also the plans in Scotland for its 20mph roll-out by 2025. It will feature implementations and results from the  20mph cities of Edinburgh and London as well as from Scottish Borders Council. An international perspective on 30km/h and 20mph limits will be given by the European Transport Safety Council and we will hear from Public Health professionals on the influence of street speeds on population health.

The conference will give valuable insights into the developing best practice around 20mph limits.

Speakers

• Lee Waters MS, Deputy Minister for Climate Change, Wales
• Kaarina Ruta, Transport Assistant, Welsh Local Government Association
• Cllr Scott Arthur, Principal Policy Lead - Roads, City of Edinburgh Council
• Ellen Townsend, Policy Director, European Transport Safety Council

A petition to the Senedd was made and has attracted 21,920 signatures. The Senedd petitions committee has agreed that the petition should be debated by Senedd and this is to be done on 28th June 2023.

We explore how the setting of the national 20mph limit for Wales has followed all required legislative procedures and included extensive involvement of politicians, local authorities, stakeholders, NGOs, government agencies and the public. It has also had 5 years of detailed investigation of its benefits and is in line with UK and International best practice. 

Members of Senedd should be congratulated in approving this important legislation which will bring wide benefits to the country.

We believe that Members of Senedd should reject this petition when it is debated on 28^th June 2023, and here we explain why.

Cornwall’s Conservative group won majority control of the County Council in May 2021 with a manifesto that promised 20mph with resident support. 

The debate on the default 20mph limit coming to residential areas in Wales often focusses on what it means for drivers.  Yet, for residential areas it makes little difference to journey times. The real impact of 20mph limits will be felt by the millions of people who use our streets whilst not in motors. Those using their legs.

Ar 17 Medi 2023 bydd y rhan fwyaf o derfynau cyflymder 30mya yn newid i 20mya yng Nghymru fel y terfyn cyflymder cenedlaethol newydd. Dyma dorri tir newydd yn y DU. Mae 20’s Plenty for Us yn helpu unrhyw un sydd am groesawu’r newid hwn, fel y gall pawb ohonom helpu i wneud strydoedd Cymru yn deg unwaith eto. Gall ein tudalennau gwe helpu i roi’r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i chi a’ch ysbrydoli.
