I have to say I am delighted we are getting closer - as I've said many times, 20 mph is not the answer to our problems with traffic going too fast but it is a step in the right direction to change our culture - in many other countries it is the norm to have 30 km (20 mph) in residential areas and some in this country like Lancashire are going for Countywide 20 mph schemes. 20 mph will hopefully make all of us drivers think and hopefully cut our speeds - see my recent letter to press here as to why 20 mph is important.
