B6326 Great North Road, Fernwood - Proposed 40mph Speed Limit

Overview

Via East Midlands Ltd, working on behalf of Nottinghamshire County Council, is proposing to introduce a 40mph speed limit on the B6326 Great North Road, Fernwood on the section between the junctions with Hollowdyke Lane and Shire Lane. The new speed limit would extend the existing limit by approximately 240 metres. The proposed 40mph speed limit would replace the existing National Speed Limit of 60mph.

The lower speed limit is being introduced as a result of the construction of a new roundabout which will provide access into a new housing development. The lower speed limit will help ensure that vehicles are travelling at the appropriate speed to negotiate the roundabout.
