shouldn’t be surprised that Manchester council has dropped its much-vaunted 20mph speed limits. Launched with a fanfare in 2012, the £1.7 million road safety project across 1,800 zones has led to little reduction in average speeds or accidents. But that’s what happens when local councils provide kneejerk solutions to traffic and transport issues. Generally they don’t work.
