Several regions across the UK are implementing or considering new 20mph speed limits to enhance public safety and promote active travel. In Theale, a pilot project aims to reduce the speed limit on most residential roads from 30mph to 20mph, despite mixed community feedback. Meanwhile, over 20 areas in the Wirral are set to see new 20mph limits as part of a broader rollout, with community consultations ongoing until September. In Braddan, a government proposal for a 20mph zone was rejected due to insufficient accident data, but local authorities argue traffic increases justify the need for speed restrictions. Blackpool is exploring a town centre-wide 20mph limit within a new Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan to improve pedestrian safety. Similarly, Stockport plans to introduce 20mph limits around residential areas to facilitate safer bus travel and cycling routes, supported by government funding.
