Decision

To approve the installation of a 30mph speed limit on Osborne Lane, Warfield.

Reasons for the decision

The current speed limit is 40mph and the Council has received consistent representations from residents asking for the limit to be lowered.

Existing speeds are consistent with a 30mph under the Boroughs Speed Management Policy and national guidelines. The proposal will also provide consistency when compared to other nearby roads.

Alternative options considered

A lower speed limit is not considered appropriate with regards to Boroughs Speed Management Policy and national guidelines and would likely be rejected by Thames Valley Police.

A higher speed limit is not considered appropriate given existing vehicle speeds.
