Title of scheme

A525 Broughall – 50mph Speed Limit

Description

Following two recent fatal road traffic collisions on the A525 Nantwich Road at Broughall to the east of Whitchurch, safety concerns have been raised by the local community regarding the speed of traffic travelling along this section of the A525. 

As a result of the investigations carried out, and following consultation with the police, Shropshire Council as the local Highway Authority proposes to introduce a 50mph speed limit order to restrict vehicle speeds to a level that is appropriate to the environment for this section of the A525, and to provide both improved road safety for all road users and quality of life for the local community.
