NOTICE is given that Oxfordshire County Council proposes to make the above order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and all other enabling powers. The effect of the order - in order to help improve road safety on local roads following concerns raised by the parish council - is to introduce a 20mph speed limit throughout East Hendred, replacing the existing 30mph speed limit on the roads south of the A417 Reading Road in their entirety, leading out of the village to the point on Newbury Road 329 metres south of its junction with Horn Lane. The existing 30mph & 40mph speed limits on the A417 Reading Road will remain in place, having taken the current road environment & traffic usage into account.
