A public consultation in Cardiff revealed that nearly 1,000 individuals called for the maximum speed limit on four major roads to revert from 20mph to 30mph. This response came after significant public backlash against a previous decision by the Welsh government to lower speed limits on many urban roads. The review involved consultations with local stakeholders, including the public, councillors, MPs, and bus companies, ensuring a collective voice in the decision-making process. Excalibur Drive gained notable attention with the highest number of requests for change at 2,078, though it did not qualify for the speed limit change due to existing community facilities.
