HRA’s submission to Southampton City Council’s expansion of the 20 mph speed limit proposals

Here is HRA’s submission to Southampton City Council’s expansion of the 20 mph speed limit proposals. https://www.highfieldresidents.org.uk/29875-2/

HRA’s submission is a strategic scheme which considers Highfield as a whole. The HRA proposal would provide for 20 mph limits on key through / cross over roads, between the major trunk roads A33, The Avenue, and A35, Burgess Road and Portswood High Street, which form the outer Highfield boundary. This would make Highfield as a whole, a safer, cleaner, calmer and generally more pleasant place.

The nominated roads are:

Highfield Avenue / Highfield Lane

University Road

Church Lane

Welbeck Avenue

Shaftesbury Avenue

Brookvale Road

Winn Road

Westwood Road.

The HRA Committee also agreed to endorse any complementary 20 mph community-supported proposals within Highfield, that were submitted by a member of HRA. These included proposals for 1. Abbotts Way and Russell Place, 2. Grosvenor Road, Grosvenor Close and Donnington Close, 3. Upper Shaftesbury Avenue and 4. Oakmount Triangle if these submssions were made.
