The only road improvements that seem to be getting made involve the suggestion of a 20mph limit and a pelican crossing. Can Mr MacIntyre explain to me why he is so confident that the children are not at risk?

I welcome the Scottish Government’s proposal to extend the 20mph limit.It is essential that walkers and cyclists can make a complete journey in an environment in which they are unhindered by physical barriers and respected by other road users.

If we drop the speed limit from 60 to 57mph, somebody will not suddenly say, “Oh, I’d better drive at 50,” when they have been driving at 70mph. They will continue to drive 20mph faster than the speed limit rather than 10mph faster.

There was a great deal of emphasis on 20mph zones, not all of which are in our gift—it is up to local authorities to implement those, although the Government has been asked to make it easier to achieve that.

Sorry, is the limit in the community bit 20mph or 30mph? I can understand why, when the environmental statement work was carried out, it was felt that the route alignment through Dundas estate would have had a major environmental impact on the area.

I am also thinking of stand-alone signage on the road that comes on when a bus or school vehicle stops, like the signage that currently applies to 20mph limits on approaches to schools.

People often have to slow right down to 20mph while, behind them, people are powering down the dual carriageway at 70mph—well, let us just call it 70mph.The letter from Malcolm Reed says that it would be right to have a deceleration lane at that junction, but it also says that the junction ranks 13th out of 18 along the whole stretch of the A90.

Unquestionably, reduction of speed is probably the single biggest factor that encourages more people, particularly women, to cycle. A 20mph speed limit unquestionably creates more cycling.
