Outcomes of the reassessment of local roads

Outcomes of the reassessment of local roads

Over the last 12 months, Flintshire County Council has been gathering the views of local residents to help inform a review and understand concerns about specific roads. As a result of this feedback, the Council has reassessed a number of roads in Buckley and its surrounding areas.

Using the exception criteria published by the Welsh Government in November 2022, nine local roads have been identified as containing stretches which meet the exceptions to 20mph speed limit restrictions or require a further assessment outside of the 20mph change in legislation process. These roads will now be subject to a statutory consultation period scheduled for July/August, pending the outcome of which, reassessed limits will be introduced in November.

A full list of the roads identified and the location of the exceptions, can be found below
