Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) are proposing the introduction of new 20mph areas in residential streets, town centres and around schools to improve road safety, create calmer streets and encourage more walking and cycling
HCC plan to introduce 20mph limits across whole areas, not just on single streets, as well as including no-through roads and short streets and other traffic calming measures. Some main roads will not be included because they carry more traffic
Before any changes are made, local residents, councillors and community groups will be asked for their views through consultations
Hertfordshire County Council’s consultation on 20mph zones is open now and closes soon on Sunday 18th October
