In March 2018, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ became Scotland's first city to implement a citywide network of streets with a 20mph limit.
Research shows that limiting speeds to 20mph in busy streets has numerous benefits including
- reducing deaths and casualties
- encouraging walking and cycling
- creating a calmer, more pleasant environment
We have carried out two public consultations and extensive research on 20mph speed limits.
