Labour must listen to Local Authorities more on blanket 20mph
Commenting on the news this morning that the Labour Government in Wales will be less obstructive with Council exemptions to the 20mph speed limit, Welsh Conservatives Shadow Transport Minister,
Labour’s disastrous blanket 20mph speed limit
Natasha Asghar MS said:
“After campaigning against Labour’s disastrous blanket 20mph speed limit and the record-breaking petition reaching almost half a million signatures, it is good to see that the pressure we are applying is starting to pay off.
“With local authorities now considering more exemptions to make the policy more sensible, we will hopefully see less of Wales grinding to a halt as a result of Labour’s disastrous policy.
“All of this however highlights how Labour and the Deputy Minister have ignored the public for so long and had limited consultation before implementing. It is completely ridiculous for this policy to be imposed on local authorities, as it is local authorities who know their local areas best. As usual, Labour think they know what is best for everyone in Wales.”
