Main roads play an important role in moving traffic around South Mimms & Ridge. For this reason, we would not propose that all main roads should have a 20mph speed limit. However, there may be sections of main roads where a 20mph speed limit can reduce traffic collisions and significantly improve road safety, such as where people need to get to places of worship, care homes, schools, parks or community facilities. 

Are there any of the main roads listed below, or sections of these roads, where you think a 20mph speed limit should be considered?

 

St Albans Road (between the chicane to the west and the roundabout to the east)


This section of St Albans Road passes homes, businesses and bus stops and forms an important route through South Mimms. It is also crossed by people travelling between different parts of the village.

5.  

Blanche Lane (between the bridge over the M25 and the roundabout with Crossoaks Lane)


Blanche Lane provides an important connection between South Mimms and Ridge, including for journeys to school and other local destinations. While there are relatively few properties along this section, there are no formal crossing points and a 20mph limit would provide continuity.
