An interactive map shows every part of Wales that will be subject to the Welsh Government's new 20mph speed limit law.
The decision to make 20mph the ‘default national position in residential areas' in Wales was made in July, 2022, by the Senedd, and the law will come into force on September 17, 2023. The Welsh Government argues this will be beneficial as it claims it will reduce pollution and the number of serious crashes on the roads.
A government report has said reducing the speed limit on Welsh roads to 20mph will have minimal impact on journey times, though the Welsh Government's own analysis has said there could be an impact on the economy.
