Completed petition Return all the M4 to the 70mph speed limit, in Wales. Remove all lower speed limits forced on us.

The OVERWHELMING MAJORITY believe the Port Talbot 50mph is not required. This is likewise with the 50mph brought in around Newport. It is stiffling our ability to travel freely and causing unnecessary 'snarl ups'. The Government is here to serve the people and better their lives. This is a reduced speed limit, that is neither wanted or required. Modern cars are able to travel very safely with far superior braking distances to older cars when 70mph was the standard motorway speed limit.
