blanket 20mph limit

[moreymach]

Just been reading my local (penzance ) rag and see that the local county council are proposing a blanket 20mph limit for the entire town including seafront and main exit road out of town !!!! Seem to remember seeing somwhere draft copies of a letter you could send the council regarding setting of limits and all that 85th percentile stuff, any ideas where I can find em again ??

Do it - stir up some local protest - they can't be allowed to get away with this sort of draconian control-freakery!

Oops miunderstood the thread. I thought you meant 20mph on blankets. How would they enforce it ? Undercover cops I suppose !!!!

good. Some humour !

WE have to prevent this 20mph thing though.

I went onto the Penzance website and found the addresses to complain to are:

Penwith District Council at [e-mail]

Cornwall Highways Dept. at [e-mail]

Perhaps if enough of us e-mail them we just might get somewhere.

We have a 20limit through town and nobody sticks to 20 but criuse through happily at 30 from what ive been told they cant enforce the 20 limit its only advisory

moreymach, you require the speed limit objection pack.
If you cant find it , I'll send you one.

BTW posted 20mph limit is mandatory
