Buxton, is 20mph plenty?

Derbyshire County Council has put forward proposals to introduce a new 20-mile-per-hour speed limit across Buxton. This has the potential to improve road safety and the quality of the air we breathe, but it’s important that local residents have their say before any change is made.

That’s why I’ve launched a survey to find out what local people think of the plans. If you live in Buxton or drive through it frequently, I want to hear your views.

Please fill out my survey online below. It’s important that we get this right.
