Overview

It is proposed to reduce the current 60mph national speed limit on the B2096 Battle Road between Heathfield and Cade Street to provide a continuous 40mph speed limit. This section of the B2096 was identified as a priority in the first year of the Speed Management Programme. 

Initial consultations have been carried out. Based on the feedback received, we are now formally advertising changes to the speed limit.
