We proposed the introduction of a 20mph speed limit in the Morland Avenue area.
Six responses were received to the online consultation, five of which were within the consultation delivery area and one outside.
We also carried out a paper consultation to residents in the area covered by the 20mph speed limit.
111 letters were delivered. 48 replied including six by the online consultation which was a 43% response rate.
38 (79%) were in favour of the proposed 20mph speed limit, nine (19%) against and one (2%) were unsure.
As a result of the support of the proposal, the City Mayor has approved the implementation of the scheme which is scheduled to come into force late 2019.
Leicester City Council is proposing to introduce a 20mph speed limit on Morland Avenue and Grenfell Road. This is part of our commitment to improve road safety and encourage walking and cycling near to schools and in residential areas. The speed limit on these streets is currently 30 miles per hour. No further traffic calming measures are proposed.
