We will be installing the new speed limit signs through June and July, beginning with Biggar Road.

Once the new 30mph speed limit signs are in place, the new speed limits will be enforceable.

We’re urging motorists to look out for the new signage and respect the speed limit.

Transport and Environment Convener, Councillor Stephen Jenkinson said:

“Road safety is a key priority for us and I’m glad that we’re moving ahead with this important process. Whilst this has taken longer than we initially anticipated, I’m confident that these measures will make many of our roads across the city safer.

“The evidence is clear – lower speed limits make roads safer for everyone. A pedestrian or cyclist has twice the chance of surviving a collision at 30mph compared to 40mph. Any action that we can take to make sure all road users are safer is a positive step.”

You can view a map of the roads with new 30mph speed limits on our website.
