Will the Minister provide an update on the Welsh Government's commitment to reducing the speed limit on the main road through Scleddau?

Answered by Deputy Minister for Climate Change | Answered on 17/02/2023

We are currently updating the Setting Local Speed Limits in Wales guidance, to reflect recently published Welsh Government policy including the Roads Review, the national roll-out of 20mph speed limits and to meet the ambitions highlighted in Llwybr Newydd: the Wales Transport Strategy 2021.  The new guidance will be published later this year and the work may see a change in the criteria for lower speed limits in Wales. My officials will review the speed limits across the trunk road network including the A40 at Scleddau, following publication of this updated guidance.
