Consultation
The effect of the above proposed Order will be to reduce the speed restriction from national to 40mph along the following length of Watling Street (V4) in Milton Keynes:
· Dansteed Way (H4), Milton Keynes (both sides) From a point 7 metres south-west of its junction with Lodge Roundabout to a point 280 metres south-west of its junction with Grange Farm Roundabout, including the entire circumference of Crownhill Roundabout and Grange Farm Roundabout and (a distance of 2,070 metres).
