Councillors have clashed over a declaration that Lancashire will not be introducing “blanket” 20mph speed limits - with some claiming that they already exist, but are not enforced.
The row follows the controversial rollout of a policy in Wales last month which has seen a default 20mph top speed imposed on most routes in built-up areas with streetlights. While there are some limited exceptions, the change - made by the Welsh Government - has been a source of heated political debate.
The final decision was given to the county councillor for each area if the road or street could have fallen into both camps. “The police did not say to me that they would not enforce these speed limits,” County Cllr Ashton said. However, deputy Labour group leader Lorraine Beavers said that in her area of Fleetwood, the limits were introduced across the board and it was only after “much fighting” that some roads were made exempt.
