20 mile speed restrictions in all built up areas will increase congestion on our roads. This in turn will have a decremental impact on local independent business's and businesses in general. Our emergency services will also be under more pressure due to a increase in congestion.

More details

We the undersigned appeal against the 20 mile speed restrictions in built up areas. We believe that this will cause far more congestion a and therefore increase the pollution .It will affect local independent businesses- especially our fast food services which offer a delivery service. It will also affect the delivery of our mail services and our children,s education and our nhs . Many people will struggle to arrive at work on time because of having to juggle bringing up a family and having to leave for work earlier so to arrive on time.
