SUFFOLK COUNTY COUNCIL (PARISH OF CREETING ST MARY) (ALL SAINTS ROAD (C487) (30 MPH SPEED LIMIT, 40 MPH SPEED LIMIT AND REVOCATION) ORDER 202-

Suffolk County Council proposes to make the above order for the Parish of Creeting St Mary under Section 84 and Part IV of Schedule 9 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, as amended, the effect of which would be to introduce:
