Amend the devolution settlement for Wales to remove powers over speed limits

Petition Details

I want the Government to amend powers devolved to the Welsh Senedd and Welsh Government as to remove control over speed limits. This would mean the UK Government and Parliament would regain control over speed limits in Wales.

Additional Information

If powers over speed limits were removed from the Welsh Senedd and Welsh Government, the UK Government and Parliament could restore parity of the default built up area speed limit (30 mph) between all countries of the United Kingdom. We believe this would avoid confusion, boost business and tourism, cut congestion, cut pollution and driver exposure to fumes, reduce driver fatigue, reduce frustration and potential road rage and remove any need for a separate Welsh Highway Code.
