Ellesmere Town Council says it has received an increasing number of complaints about speeding traffic in the town.

The meeting will be held in the Town Hall on October 18 at 7pm with a national campaigner for the Twenty's Plenty campaign one of the speakers.

The presentation will be given by Rod King, founder and director of the ‘20’s plenty for us’ national campaign, and Denise Crampton-Thompson, chair of Ludlow 21 Sustainable Transport Group. Mr King said such schemes typically lead to up to 20 per cent fewer casualties; they protect children; and boost walking, cycling and social interaction.

Campaigners say that 20 mph is already accepted as normal in residential areas covering 25 million people in the UK, including all residential areas of Wales.
