Wales 20mph speed limit - update on WG guidance

When the 20mph legislation was introduced by the Welsh Government this year, Swansea Council reviewed all roads and exempted more roads from 20mph than any other authority in Wales.

Following publication of revised guidance by the Welsh Government, a further review of roads in Swansea is underway which focuses on roads which are potentially affected by the new guidance,

The WG published the new guidance at the end of July and since then traffic officers in the city have looked at the potential for returning further roads or sections of roads back to 30mph.

Residents can now get in touch with Swansea Council's traffic team and put forward suggestions for roads they feel could be included, in line with the newly published guidance - https://www.gov.wales/new-framework-support-councils-20mph#content

Some roads already being considered by the Council following feedback from residents, includes Mayals Roads, a section of Mynydd Newydd Road and a section of Llangyfelach Road - all of which automatically changed to the lower 20mph speed limit when then original guidance was published.

If you want to put forward suggestions for inclusion in the ongoing review, please email traffic@swansea.gov.uk
