Re: 20mph speed limits
I agree with 20mph roads where there are houses but you can't do it on every road with a house. New Lane would not be a good 20 limit IMHO because it is one of the main roads into Ossy since the M65 extension was completed. Around all the terraced streets and housing estates yes. Union road would be another one that should stay at 30. I drive at 30 along Union Road and feel it is ok - many other don't, they are the problem.
We should not just reduce the limit from 30 to 20 so cars will drive at 30 though. We need to enforce the 30 limits where they are appropriate.
There are some 20 mph areas in Accrington and Blackburn - they tend to be in areas where parents don't care enough to not let their 3 year olds play on the road by themselves.
