Agenda item

The Committee considered a report which detailed a request from local residents for the existing 40mph speed limits on Spilsby Road, Boston Road & Langton Hill, Horncastle to be reduced to 30mph. Investigations and a speed survey have indicated that a reduction in the level of limit may be considered a 'Borderline Case', as defined within the Council's Speed Limit Policy. Therefore, the Planning and Regulation Committee could approve a departure from the criteria if they felt it appropriate.

On a motion proposed by Councillor I G Fleetwood and seconded by Councillor P A Skinner, it was:

RESOLVED (unanimous)

That the Committee approved the reduction in speed limit proposed so that the necessary consultation process to bring it into effect may take place.
