Rejected petition Change the Colwyn Bay 50mph stretch of the A55 to 70mph
The area of the A55 by Colwyn Bay is reduced to 50mph. The speed drop often causes high volume traffic to slam on their brakes, causing high congestion and accidents. The speed should remain the same in order ease these problems
