Is 20 Plenty

Cambridgeshire County Council is proposing to lower the speed limit within our village to 20mph & to implement 40mph buffer zones on approach roads. The proposals are part of a wider programme at the county council to introduce more 20mph speed limits across the county.
This application, supported by Bottisham Parish Council, is in response to your concerns & requests.
Bottisham is already a very busy village and is often used as a “rat-run” or through-route to nearby villages of Swaffham Bulbeck, Swaffham Prior and Burwell. Bottisham Parish Council has received a number of complaints of speeding within the village despite having speed warning signs (MVAS) and 30mph poles. Bottisham has a growing population of 2400 with a primary and secondary school, two care homes and a recently approved, to be built, 170 retirement home. The village is made up of a very diverse population, older people, growing families with children, young adults and persons with mobility issues and irrespective of age and ability surely their safety is paramount?
By having a 20mph speed limit throughout the village it will make it clearer to drivers that Bottisham is a village with a community that values its safety, has a population that walks around the village. This application is also in response to public concerns and follows public consultation.
The reason this is needed within the village is it will help address significant known safety issues that have got progressively worse over a number of years. Our village roads are full of fast-moving cars, vans & lorries - making our roads & footpaths unsafe for pedestrians, cyclists & more. Children, older people & those with mobility issues are particularly at risk.
The 20mph speed limit would be across the entire village.
Whilst our village has been prioritised for this scheme, further work on the proposals & public consultation will take place
before any work takes place.
