PROPOSED 50MPH SPEED LIMIT ORDER

All County roads that are assigned the national speed limit have been reviewed to identify those with a personal injury accident rate higher than the national average. As a result of this review West Lane and Victoria Road have been identified to have a total number of accidents above the national average. Therefore, in order to increase highway safety and reduce the accident rate, the County Council proposes to reduce the speed limit from 60mph to 50mph.

The effect of the proposed Order will be to reduce the existing national speed limit to 50mph. THE LEICESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL
