Are these exceptions to 20mph correct? Are they roads that you cycle on? Would you feel safer if they were 20mph? Have your say by 19th July.

[Hilary May @BirdsBikesBoots]

https://t.co/ouOn3af0Ja I think Cardiff/Barry Rd should be 20mph from Cross Common Rd junc to the bus lane near Merrie Harrier not as proposed. If you agree the refs you need are T/23/110/WS (Barry end), T/23/111/WS (Merrie Harrier end). Now it'll take you 30secs! @LSDinasPowys

“We applaud @WGTransport #RoadsReview for prioritising more sustainable forms of travel. We must encourage more children to walk to school in order to engrain healthy behaviours from an early age and benefit future generations.”

Has anyone found a longer waiting time at a crossing in Wales? Let us know!

"Slow speeds create a safer and more welcoming environment, giving people the confidence to walk and cycle more, which will help to improve our health and wellbeing and help to improve the environment."

How often do you hear “speed was not a factor” in a crash? They mean the driver wasn’t exceeding the (probably too high) speed limit. Remember, when it comes to the likelihood that vehicle crashes will occur, & whether the consequences are deadly or not, SPEED IS ALWAYS A FACTOR.

Air pollution is bad for our health and the environment, but we CAN make a difference!

WOW – the Walk to School Challenge encourages children and families walk to school, which can reduce congestion and air pollution.

[20's Plenty for Us @20splentyforus]

Great to be in Cardiff to see Welsh Parliament setting a national 20mph default urban/village speed limit. A huge step forward building on national Welsh values combined with local flexibility. All aligned with WHO best practice. https://t.co/EvDGyFBngw
