20mph zone planned for A-road outside village school near Oswestry
Plans to impose new speed restrictions outside a school in a village near Oswestry have been revealed.
Shropshire Council is proposing to reduce the speed limit on the A495 Station Road in Whittington.
It's a move being proposed to "improve the safety of school children, residents and other road users near Whittington CEA Primary School".
A spokesperson for the local authority said the 20mph zone would cover the main school entrance on Station Road.
A consultation for the plans is open from January 29 to February 19, with documents available for viewing at Oswestry Library during regular opening hours.
