It is therefore government policy that a 30 mph speed limit should be the norm through villages. 7.3. 134.. Where the character of a village falls outside this definition, local authorities are encouraged to use their discretion in deciding whether a lower speed limit is appropriate “Local residents may also express their concerns or desire for a lower speed limit and these comments should be considered.” Extract Taken form Minutes of Spurstow Parish Council Meeting March 2013 Cheshire East Council Propose a 30 MPH speed limit for A49 Spurstow. The Current Petition therefore represents a position originally proposed by Cheshire East Council Re: – Petition Ref: Petition 86 to Cheshire East Council A49 Spurstow Speed Limit 30 MPH Summary Points To be read in conjunction with Correspondence with Mr Frank Jordon (Executive Director –Place) Further points in support of a 30 MPH limit and with reference to: Department for Transport Circular on Setting Speed Limits – January 2013 Cheshire East Council’s “Speed Management Strategy – September 2016 Guidance states that 30mph is generally the norm in villages; The road geometry demands a 30 mph limit.
