(Note : Whittlesey Town Council decided NOT to apply for a blanket 20 MPH area for the whole district. It has however promoted and persued residents wishes of a 20 MPH along Ramsey Road/Church Street and ajoining streets)
Following the Highways and Transport Committee on 3 October, more 20mph schemes have been approved across the county.
More than 80 applications were received from local communities. Some of the areas where the schemes will be implemented include Cottenham, Fulbourn, Whittlesford, Girton, Willingham, Upwood and The Raveleys, Elton, Houghton and Wyton, Burwell and Wicken.
The schemes will be rolled out after the winter period once the weather starts to improve, with all schemes in place by Autumn 2024.
Improving road safety through 20mph schemes is a priority of the Cambridgeshire County Council’s Joint Administration which has highlighted several benefits from the programme, including safer streets which allow residents to feel safe when walking or cycling and reduced noise and pollution.
The scheme will reopen for new applications in January 2024.
