A PUBLIC consultation into proposals to introduce a 20mph speed limit and accompanying traffic calming measures on a Keighley street has begun.

Bradford Council is planning to introduce the speed limit on Parkwood Street in Keighley – home to Parkwood Primary School and the Parkwood Centre for Young People.

And there will also be a number of “speed cushions” installed on the street to help maintain the lower speed limit.

Objections send Idle traffic calming plans back to drawing board

Consultations on both the new limit and the traffic calming measures began on Tuesday and will run until February 25.

In recent years Bradford Council has begin introducing a number of 20mph zones in town and city centres, as well as around schools, to improve road safety.
