20mph in central London in congestion zone
As from Monday 2nd March 2020, the London congestion zone has reduced the speed limit to 20mph. This is managed by TFL, Transport for London and is a collaboration with the Mayor of London's office to reduce deaths on London roads. These are the roads with the reduced speeding limit:
- Albert Embankment
- Lambeth Palace Road and Lambeth Bridge
- Millbank
- Victoria Embankment
- Upper Thames Street, Lower Thames Street, Byward Street and Tower Hill
- Borough High Street and Great Dover Street
- Blackfriars Road
- Part of Druid Street, Crucifix Lane and part of Bermondsey Street
- Part of Tooley Street, Duke Street Hill and part of Queen Elizabeth Street
They are hoping it will encourage more people to walk and cycle around London.
