New 30mph speed limit proposed for stretch of road in Northamptonshire village

The proposed order has been put forward under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and would affect a section of the C27 Heyford Road in Bugbrooke near Church Lane.

Under the plans, the new speed restriction would apply in both directions from a point 14 metres north of the junction with Church Lane and continue northwards for a distance of 85 metres.

The council says documents relating to the proposal, including detailed maps and the reasons behind the scheme, are available to view online through its traffic regulation orders page.

Residents can also inspect the documents in person by appointment at Kier Highways’ Brixworth Depot on Old Harborough Road.

Members of the public wishing to support, object to or comment on the proposed speed limit have until June 4, 2026 to submit their views.

Representations must be made in writing and should quote reference number P2156.

Comments can be sent to the Traffic Orders Section at Kier Highways in Brixworth or by email to [email protected].

The public notice was published in the print edition of the Northampton Chronicle & Echo and the Public Notice Portal.
