The introduction of a reduced speed limit on a key road connecting Nottingham and West Bridgford is 'not being noticed' by motorists, according to residents. The new limit of 30mph has been brought in on a stretch of Radcliffe Road through the Lady Bay area.
Previously a 40mph section, the limit applies from the Meadow Lane junction just north of Lady Bay Bridge to its junction with Davies Road. Proposals were put forward in October last year and are designed to reduce the traffic speeds on the approach to junctions and improve road safety, according to Nottinghamshire County Council.
The revised limit is now being enforced, with signage being placed at several spots such as its junction with Meadow Lane and Trevelyan Road. However residents along Radcliffe Road and its side streets feel the change has not been well advertised, saying many motorists are "just not aware".
