This aligns with global best practice[2] that 20mph or 30km/h is the maximum permissible speed on roads used by pedestrians and cyclists unless a higher limit is evidentially safe. It is a key component of Scotland’s response to the Climate Emergency and helps to support Active Travel.

20mph for Wales as a National Speed Limit

People want 20mph streets.  Fortunately, 20mph limits are affordable and do-able. What’s the best method? The Welsh Government can lead with a 20mph default for built up areas.  This is a cost-effective win-win all round – eg for the legal process, consultation, signage, engagement, higher compliance and enforcement.
