20 mph zones to be imposed

See Lancs County are imposing 20mph areas over a huge swathe of streets in Great Harwood and Knuzden. Did anyone see or hear of a consultation period?

As much as we all want road safety to be an issue (certainly outside any school is justified) to blanket half the town with 20mph is OTT for my money.

The cost of this scheme must be a fortune. I sometimes wonder with this type of thing as exampled by the needless lights at roundabouts whether the Council is too cosy with the road sign manufacturers or at least justifying continuing expense of the Highway Dept over some more desperately needed areas.

Speed Limits - 20mph areas - Hyndburn
