A 20mph speed limit will be imposed on roads through a Yorkshire village.
Rotherham Council says no objections were raised against the new speed limit on Woodall Lane, Killamarsh Lane, Walseker Lane and Dowcar Lane, in Harthill and the whole of the village of Woodall during a year-long consultation period. A report found that in the previous three years, two crashes which resulted in an injury have been recorded by police in the area of the scheme – one of which led to serious injuries for a horse rider.
A report states: “This is achieved by the compact nature of Woodall village and that Walseker Lane and Dowcar Lane are already low traffic and speed cul-de-sac.” Once the 20mph speed limit is implemented, the site will be monitored to ensure vehicles comply.
