To consider a recommendation to introduce a new 40mph Speed Limit on various roads at Lawton’s Cross and Shirl Heath.
The extents of the proposed speed limit are precisely set out in Recommendation(s) below and shown on drawing 3409 81B in Appendix A.
The recommendation is proposed for the following reasons:
• For avoiding danger to persons or other traffic using the road or any other road or preventing the likelihood of any such danger arising.
• For preserving and improving the amenity of the area through which the road runs.
• To improve road safety in the vicinity of the Lawton’s Cross crossroads.
• Ensure the expeditious, safe and convenient movement of vehicles through Shirl Heath.
• Support the upcoming safety scheme to introduce a roundabout at the Lawton’s Cross crossroads.
