Rejected petition Repeal the change of 20 mph to the main roads around London.

Rejected on 29 September 2023

To make sure we have 30mph or 40mph to the main roads and introduce 20mph where appropriate such as outside the schools and residential areas.

Driving in London become unbearable as the traffic queues are getting longer and longer.

Repeal the 20mph and re-introduce 30mph where is appropriate.
