Members might be aware that I intend to consult on a member’s bill to change the default restricted road speed limit from 30mph to 20mph. Clackmannanshire Council has already largely delivered that although, sadly, Falkirk Council and Stirling Council have not.

Another example is switching the default speed limit in residential areas in Scotland from 30mph to 20mph, which could have a big impact on reducing emissions at the tailpipe but could also incentivise active travel.

There is good evidence that 20 miles per hour speed limits can significantly reduce air pollution from diesel vehicles, so will the Government also consider a default 20mph speed limit for Scotland’s residential areas, which would be significantly cheaper for councils to roll out than the current piecemeal approach to 20mph zones?

Car parking in Glasgow, for example, is expensive and I think that Edinburgh has reduced its speed limit to 20mph in the city centre. Councils are taking different measures to address perhaps similar problems.
