🚦 Exciting changes are on the horizon for drivers in the Vale of Glamorgan! 🚗 Plans are set to revamp speed limits on several roads, bringing a fresh wave of speed adjustments to the area. Here’s the scoop:
👉 What’s happening? The speed limit is set to increase from 20mph to 30mph on three roads, while three other roads will see limits reduced from 30mph to 20mph. These changes are up for cabinet consideration on January 15th.
🛣️ Roads set for a speed hike include parts of Hayes Road in Sully and sections of Pentir-y-De in Rhoose and Cardiff Road in Cowbridge. However, feedback has preserved the 20mph limit on parts of Llantwit Major Road in Cowbridge.
⏬ On the flip side, roads like Leckwith Road in Llandough and the B4524 Main Road in Ogmore-By-Sea will see speed limits reduced to 20mph.
📢 Why the change? A 2023 initiative by the Welsh Government introduced a default 20mph limit, but it wasn’t one-size-fits-all. Residents have voiced their opinions, prompting a thorough review of local roads.
📊 The results are in: After reviewing 103 roads, assessments suggested adjustments on seven. A recent consultation saw mixed feedback, with both support and objections pouring in.
