Consultation starts on 20mph zone for Menston

Bradford Council has launched a consultation on the introduction of a 20mph zone for Menston.

The Traffic and Highways (North) Team at the council want to find out what local residents think about the proposed traffic measures for the village.

The proposals include a village-wide 20mph zone with supporting traffic calming features on entrances to the zone and on the main through-routes.

One-way streets are also being proposed for Derry Hill and Leathley Road, as well as a priority give-way feature along Main Street outside Menston Primary School.

Councillor Alex Ross-Shaw, Bradford Council’s Executive Member for Regeneration, Planning and Transport, said: “These proposals for Menston are aimed at making the streets in the safer for local school children, pedestrians and cyclists. Menston is the latest community we’re looking to deliver an area-wide 20mph zone for after successful zones in the city centre and Shipley, as well as dozens of schools around the district. We’re encouraging local residents to take a look at the plans and let us have their feedback."

Copies of the plans and supporting documents can be found online at: https://www.bradford.gov.uk/consultations/current-consultations/consultation-and-engagement/

Residents may submit comments by email to: MenstonFB@bradford.gov.uk.

The consultation started on Monday 12th June and runs until Friday 30th June 2023.
