Unspecified Right to Ride I question a 50 on this length. The section Network (R.M between Lillyfee Farm Road and Wooburn Crombie) Common Road has far too many bends to encourage people to exceed 40. At present, drivers know they can go up to the national limit of 60 but they don't. However, put in a 50 limit and they may well try to drive at that speed.

40 Right to Ride Supports colleagues comments (above). Network (Peter The imposition of a 40mph limit would be England) feasible in the light of recorded average and 85th percentile.
