Kilfinan Community met with the Roads Department in November. An important part of the discussion was about the lack of speed limits in our area. The roads department have now suggested the limits below and we are keen to hear from our communities about these proposals. 

We are supportive of the proposed changes, but our initial reaction was that where we are introducing new limits these should be consistently 20 mph, rather than the suggested 30 and 40 mph limits. 

Please let us have your views secretary.kilfinancc@gmail.com

·  A8003 south entrance to Tighnabruaich: NSL/60mph-40mph-30mph staggered at entrance

·  A8003 school area 20mph e.g. from Kyles Court to B8000/Shore junction

·  20mph limits on ‘side roads’ i.e. those not on main arterial A8000/B8000

·  B8000 northward – 20mph zone approaching shops to RNLI base

·  Kames Shore road/back road – 20mph, 30mph limit to extend past Blairs Ferry
