The maximum speeds on parts of the A583 between Preston and Blackpool and sections of the A6 between Broughton and Lancaster will be reduced
The speed limits on two major Lancashire roads are to be cut in a bid to reduce the number of accidents occurring on them.
But the Local Democracy Reporting Service understands the changes will be focused on areas where new housing estates have been – or are being – built. It means motorists turning out of new side roads onto the heavy-flowing A-routes will not have to negotiate traffic travelling at up to 50mph, as is currently the case.
The schemes will also see measures introduced to encourage cycling and walking – and to keep those choosing to do so safe. Between a quarter and a third of recent accidents on the two roads have involved cyclists and pedestrians.
