Question
To ask the Scottish Executive what plans it has to review the speed limits on A-roads.
Answer
In 2006, the Scottish Government issued guidance to local authorities on setting local speed limits. Authorities were asked to review speed limits on all A and B class roads in their area by the end of 2011. Transport Scotland has in parallel been reviewing speed limits on the trunk road network.
