A Village Speed Limit Policy for Shropshire sets out the council’s practical and realistic approach to the introduction of speed limits in villages across the county. It is part of our overarching speed management strategy for Shropshire; future documents will include our ‘Rural Roads Speed Limits Policy’ and ‘Urban Speed Limits Policy.’
The policy and appendices are attached to this page for you to download or read.
Work on developing an initial prioritised list of qualifying villages has been completed and is attached to this page.
Please contact us via the details on this page should you require further information.
Draft vehicle activated sign policy consultation
Shropshire Council is currently consulting parish and town councils on a draft vehicle activated sign policy. This document outlines the criteria for use and funding of vehicle activated signs on the highway and the cost sharing arrangements with parish and town councils. Once finalised the draft policy will form part of the council’s wider speed management strategy which includes the existing village speed limit policy. Follow the link on this page for more information about the draft vehicle activated sign policy.
