20mph Survey for the Falkirk Area

The Scottish Government is developing a National Strategy for 20mph speed limits which supports the delivery of the safe system contained in “Scotland’s Road Safety Framework to 2030”. The Framework promotes the continued growth of active and sustainable travel whilst recognising that the perception of urban and rural roads as unsafe is a barrier against these everyday journeys. The Scottish Government seeks to expand 20mph zones and limits in Scotland.

The Strategy aims to introduce a package of measures which support a range of policies from active and sustainable travel to climate change and will assist to reduce road casualties and the perceptions of road danger in our communities.

Falkirk Council are currently progressing plans to roll out 20mph speed limits to appropriate locations in line with Scottish Government proposals.

Your feedback will help inform future decisions about traffic management and ensure that any measures we implement reflect the needs and experiences of the people who live and work in the Falkirk Council Area.

If you have any question regarding the engagement, please get in touch by emailing contact.centre@falkirk.gov.uk.
