Rejected petition Scrap the 20mph speed limit in Buckley and only apply it outside schools and some housing estates.

On the 1/3/2022 Buckley Town seen the introduction to 20mph speed limits throughout the town, it was not needed and it causes a lot of hassle to drivers and increases pollution within the town.
There has been no increase in road accidents, just the inept Welsh government think it's acceptable to imply these new speed limits.
By signing this petition the aim is to remove the 20mph speed limits in most areas and only keep them for areas around schools and only some housing estates.
