20mph zone on 17 Foxborough roads begins

FOXBOROUGH: Works to implement a 20mph speed limit zone on 17 roads and cul-de-sacs in Foxborough has begun, writes James Bagley, Local Democracy Reporter.

In a letter to residents, Slough Borough Council said from January 18 they will be undertaking roadworks – which includes installing signs and markings.

It is expected the works will be completed in approximately two weeks – but weather conditions may affect the implementation process.

The roads and cul-de-sacs the 20mph speed limit scheme will be introduced on include: Cheviot Road; Common Road, Grampian Way; Humber Way; Longwood Avenue; Oak Tree Drive, Tamar Way; Quantock Close; Peterhead Mews; Sir Robert Mews; Mendip Close, Simmons Close; Skerries Court; Acorn Close; Spitfire Close; Bridgewater Close and Eden Close.

The council said this will bring the existing speed limits in line with current standards and guidance'.
