In light of ongoing frontage development activities along the A1500, Sturton by Stow Parish Council formally requested an extension of the 30mph speed limit to the west of the village centre, thereby replacing the existing 40mph limit.
Safety concerns have not been prevalent along this route in the past, with only one reported injury accident occurring over the last five years.
However, a report into the change states: “It is anticipated road safety along this section of the A1500 will be improved, should this new speed limit be introduced.”
After consideration, the committee ultimately decided to support the proposed change.
