The University supported Coventry City Council’s proposal to amend speed limits on adjacent and adjoining roads, including revoking the existing 40mph speed limit on Stoneleigh Road and Gibbet Hill Road.

This change has now been implemented, meaning both roads have reverted to a 30mph national speed limit. Reducing the speed limit from 40mph to 30mph is expected to lower traffic speeds, which will, in turn, help reduce traffic noise and improve conditions for residents, cyclists, and pedestrians. 

The speed limit on campus is set at 20mph to prioritise the safety of all road users, particularly pedestrians and cyclists. A lower speed limit can reduce the likelihood and severity of collisions, creating a safer environment for students, staff, and visitors.
