NEW 30mph SPEED LIMIT.
The previous 40mph limit on the A38 between the Orchard Grove roundabout and the roundabout at the junction of Silk Mills Road/A38 Wellington Road, has now been reduced to 30mph. This is not (in my opinion) well signed, however is now in force.
Here’s the email confirmation from Somerset Highways >>>
