Greystoke Village 20mph Speed Limit Application
Due to ongoing concerns from the community and evidence from the village speed cameras we know that speeding through Greystoke village is a major issue. Greystoke Parish Council intends to make an application to Westmorland and Furness Council for a 20mph speed limit within the village.
Our aim in doing so is to promote safer roads, reduce vehicle pollution and noise, to enhance the environment for the community to make it a more pleasant and safer area for families, cyclists, walkers and riders.
As part of the Westmorland and Furness Council application criteria used to assess requests for 20mph schemes it is a requirement that the proposal is supported by the local community and any introduction of the 20mph speed limit within the village will be subject to consultation.
If you are in support of the 20mph speed limit within the village please join us at a drop-in session on Tuesday 13th February 2024 in the village hall from 6pm-6.45pm. Councillor Day and Councillor Thompson will be in attendance throughout the session.
If you cannot come along on the night, then there will be a support petition for you to sign in the village shop and the Boot & Shoe.
