Motorways to trial 60 mph limits

Oh! dear, Parts of the motorway network will lower limits from 70mph to 60 mph on M6 junctions 6 to 7 by Witton, M1 junctions 33 to 34 by Rotherham, M602 junctions 1 to 3 by Eccles and M5 1 to 2 by Oldbury. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-54130862

Wales have had two stretches of the M4 reduced to 50 for over a year now, the Brynglas tunnel stretch, and the stretch past Port Talbot , from Margam to Briton Ferry.

The final nail in using motorways.
What’s the point for cars at best 60 mph max at worse caught for hours between junctions in massive jams.
Also more of them caused by cars spending longer in the danger zone at the side of trucks.
The government isn’t fit for purpose.

The EU has upped the ante yet again on emissions! The EU MEP’s have just won a vote to tighten the emission limits even further by another 20% by 2030. :open_mouth: This EU vote directly affects the UK as we follow & underpin the EU’s emission standards. newsd.in/meps-back-tougher-eu-2 … te-target/

The UK government imposing bs rules without a mandate who would have thought it.
