The Port Town of Rosyth will see most of its roads have a new 20 mph speed limit.

The council says drivers are being asked to observe the new speed limit to improve road safety. It’s working in conjunction with Transport Scotland, which is introducing 20mph on the A985(T) Admiralty Road (pictured), and from this week local staff will begin installing road signs making people aware of the new speed limit.

Welcoming the news, Councillor David Barratt, Convener of South and West Fife Area Committee said: “We want to keep people safe on our roads. By introducing these new measures, we aim to improve accessibility for all and encourage more people to walk, cycle and wheel in Rosyth.

“We ask drivers to please observe the lower speed limit and help everyone feel safer travelling in Rosyth.”

The Temporary Traffic Order is for 18 months and applies to the following roads eight roads.
