Wales is set to lower urban speed limits down to 20mph. What do you think? Should the rest of the UK follow suit?
Scores of towns and cities across the UK already impose 20mph limits on residential roads, but they have to approve individual applications to lower it from the default 30mph.
But if new legislation is passed by the government later today, Wales will become the first country to impose 20mph as the standard speed limit in these busy areas. These areas are detailed in official documents as restricted roads, in residential areas and busy pedestrian streets, where streetlights are less than 200 yards apart.If approved, the change will cost £33 million to implement, with an expected start date of September 2023.
