Controversial 20mph zones across West Lothian may soon become a permanent fixture on local roads.
Transport Scotland, the national transport agency, has commissioned a £1m-plus country wide survey of the roads network and asked local councils to look to a future where 20mph is the norm - especially on urban roads.
West Lothian Council’s Executive heard details of the local survey, paid for by Transport Scotland, which will cost £47,000 and will look at creating a safer future on the 653 miles (1,050km) of West Lothian’s roads.
