Rural and urban road speed policies

Road speed signs

In January 2010, Shropshire Council consulted town and parish councils and stakeholders on two draft documents:

  • Urban speed limit policy.
  • Rural roads speed limit policy.

Progress

Comments received during the consultation process were addressed in the report put forward to cabinet on 20 January 2010.

The Rural Speed Limit Policy was approved at the full council meeting held on 21 January 2010.

Further consideration of the Urban Speed Limit Policy is in progress in light of some comments received during consultation, and the government's current review of guidance on 20mph limits in urban areas. This will be reported back to cabinet at a future meeting.

Please follow the link on this page to view the decision report for both policies.
