At the council cabinet meeting held on 6 September, after an 18 month trial period, the Mayor made the decision to make the boroughwide 20mph speed limit permanent.

We have just had notification that the new 20mph borough-wide limit (except for TfL roads other than Commercial Street) will come into force on Monday 13th April.

Wheelers' Infrastructure Officer and Campaigns Co-ordinator have a meeting scheduled with the borough officers next week and will ask about the all important enforcement proposals. We'll keep you posted when we get more information.
