Members of Doncaster’s Conservative party have publicly criticised the council for its continued implementation of ‘traffic calming’ zones.
Conservative mayoral candidate James Hart and Don Valley MP Nick Fletcher have criticised Doncaster Council for implementing several 20mph zones across the borough. The council announced last year that it would continue rollout of these zones in the areas where a large amount of casualties have previously occured to prevent traffic collisions. While the majority of traffic calming zones are found outside of schools across the borough, some have now been implemented in other built-up areas.
