Amersham Road estate 20mph zone proposal

Proposed introduction of a 20mph zone for the Amersham Road estate. This zone will be made compliant (and reduce traffic speeds) via the installation of full-width speed humps of a ‘sinusoidal’ influenced design that is intended to lessen the initial impact.

Approval was given by the Traffic Management Sub-Committee in September 2026 to carry out a statutory consultation on this scheme, which can be viewed in the drawings at the bottom of this page.
