How do I set about getting a local speed limit changed?
If you would like a speed limit to be lowered, raised or extended, you should contact your local council who will make an assessment. The council will seek a police view on any proposed changes to a speed limit. All characteristics of the road, such as its alignment, the level of activity alongside the road, the accident record and the degree of severance caused to a community by the speed of vehicles, will be taken into account.
