(Attleborough, Various Roads) - 30 And 40 Mph Speed Limit Orders 202x

Norfolk County Council propose to make the following Orders under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984:

The Norfolk County Council (Attleborough, Various Roads) - (30 mph Speed Limit) Consolidation and Variation Order 202X

The effect of the Order is to prohibit any motor vehicle from exceeding 30 miles per hour along the length of road C153 Hargham Road from its junction with the C572 London Road/High Street south-westwards to a point 279.5 metres south-west of its junction with the U11324 New Road. This is an extension of the existing 30 mph speed limit by a distance of 204.5 metres.

The following Orders are proposed to be consolidated into the new 30 mph Order:
i. The Norfolk County Council (Attleborough, Various Roads) - (30 m.p.h. Speed Limit) Consolidation Order 2019;
ii. The Norfolk County Council (Attleborough, Ellingham Road/Queens Road) (30 m.p.h. Speed Limit) Amendment Order 2022; and;
iii. The Norfolk County Council (Attleborough, B1077 Norwich Road) (30mph Speed Limit) Order 2025

The Norfolk County Council (Attleborough, Various Roads) - (40 mph Speed Limit) Consolidation and Variation Order 202X

To extend the 30-mph speed limit, a reduction of the existing 40 mph speed limit is proposed. The Norfolk County Council (Attleborough, Various Roads) (40 mph Speed Limit) Order 2013 and its amendments in the aforementioned Orders, are proposed to be consolidated for clarity and efficient administration of the restrictions, whereby the existing lengths of road specified in those Orders will not be changed apart from the length of C153 Hargham Road as stated above. As part of the consolidation the existing Orders are being updated to reflect current legislation, or are being clarified to make them clearer, or are being amended to correct minor errors.
