Greg Mulholland-Working Hard For Leeds North WestFinal Victory for Moorland Road and Occupation Lane Campaigners
August 9, 2010 12:01 PM
Greg and local residents and campaigners had pushed hard for the change previously and staged a protest earlier this year
Following the announcement that Leeds City Council finally plans to reduce the speed limit on Moorland Road and Occupation Lane, local MP Greg Mulholland has written to residents of the streets welcoming the move.
Greg, who had helped lead the campaign to have the previous speed limit reduced has congratulated his fellow campaigners on their hard fought victory.
The campaign to have the speed limit reduced involved at one point Greg replacing the unrestricted speed limit signs in use at the time with special 30mph signs made by children living on the roads.
Commenting Greg said:
"I whole heartedly welcome this move to finally replace the unrestricted speed limit on Moorland Road with a far more sensible 30 mph limit.
"It was simply nonsensical to have an unrestricted speed limit on a residential street where kids were at risk.
"Now that progress has been made I hope residents will feel safer on the roads in question."
