Consultation
The effect of the above proposed Order will be to introduce a 40mph speed limit restriction along the following lengths of road:
- From its junction with the south-west side of Galley Hill Roundabout to its junction with Tudor Gardens, Calverton, a distance of 190 metres.
- From its junction with the north-east side of Galley Hill Roundabout, for a distance of 270 metres in a north-easterly direction.
The proposed 40mph speed limit comes as a result of the need to unify with the 40mph speed restriction on V4 Watling Street.
The current speed limit on H1 Ridgeway is national speed limit (60mph).
As the Highway Authority for that part of H1 Ridgeway, Milton Keynes City Council is satisfied that the introduction of the above proposed speed restriction will encourage the convenient and safe movement of vehicular traffic.
All signs and road markings will be in accordance with the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016.
The Council will continue to monitor the way in which highway facilities are used and address any issues that come to its notice and following meaningful consultation with all stakeholders do what it considers necessary to facilitate the expeditious, convenient and safe movement of vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
The Council is now carrying out statutory consultation on the above proposal.
