The National Speed Management Review seeks to ensure speed limits in Scotland are appropriate and contribute to reducing injury and death on our roads. The consultation invites feedback on proposals to lower the national speed limit on single carriageway roads from 60 mph to 50 mph and to increase speed limits for goods vehicles over 7.5 tonnes on single carriageways to from 40 mph to 50 mph, and on dual carriageways from 50 mph to 60 mph.
The online consultation has been open since the 27 November 2024 and has already received over 8,700 responses.
