The Welsh Government will listen to the people of Wales and work with councils to deliver targeted change to the implementation of 20mph, Cabinet Secretary Ken Skates has said.
In a speech outlining his transport priorities to the Senedd, the Cabinet Secretary pledged to put the voice of Welsh citizens at the heart of decision making on transport while setting out a three-phase plan on 20mph.
Alongside a national listening programme, the Welsh Government will work jointly with local authorities to prepare the ground for changes, revising the guidance on which local roads can be exempted from 20mph. The revised guidance will be published in July, with Councils expected to start detailed consultation on changes from September.
This is part of a three-phase plan which includes:
- A genuine programme of listening to people.
- Work in partnership with key bodies to prepare the ground for change.
- Deliver the necessary changes on the ground.
