20 mph zones – CEC wants your views

Adapted from an email from Edinburgh Council 20mph_Eflier

The Council’s Transport and Environment Committee has approved a draft network of 20, 30 and 40 mph roads as a basis for consultation and authorised a public consultation on extending the 20 mph speed limits to many roads in the city.

Whatever your views about the 20 mph speed limit proposals, Edinburgh Council wants to hear from you.  You can email your views to the address below or use the online consultation. Drop-in events, public meetings and exhibitions are also taking place across the city.

An interactive map of the draft proposals, a list of frequently asked questions and details of the engagement events are available on the Council’s website at www.edinburgh.gov.uk/20mph.

Please forward this email to any contacts that you feel would be interested in making their views heard on the proposals. The consultation is open until 17 October.
