flag Cambridgeshire approved 11 new 20mph zones in villages, funded by the county, to improve safety and encourage walking and cycling.

flag Cambridgeshire County Council has approved 11 new 20mph speed zones across villages including Wilburton, Sutton, and Harston, following community applications. flag Fully funded by the county, the projects will begin in late summer 2026 and extend through spring 2027. flag The move aims to boost road safety, with studies showing a 90% pedestrian survival rate at 20mph versus 50% at 30mph, and potential reductions of over 20% in traffic casualties. flag While some villages will use speed signs and indicators, Harston will rely on community awareness without additional enforcement. flag The initiative reflects strong local support and is part of a broader effort to promote walking and cycling.
