I disagree.


Our whole estate and those adjoining are all 20mph limited with signs
on all roads entering the estates and speed humps. *Doesn't stop
traffic, doesn't 'serve communities' any more than 'before 20'.


Serves communities less as the throughput of that 'serving' road has been
lowered by 33%.


So if 30 vehicles use that road in half an hour, only 20 will be able
to with the new limit then?
