Why waste money on a consultation if you then totally ignore the results?

It's worse than that. Some parish councils objected as well, and Norfolk County Council think it is a stupid idea.

i seem to recall a single parish wanted the limit to stay. the main claim was that the only crashes since the limit had been minor - so minor i recall 6 instances of the road being closed this year - very sadly 2 people were killed the day after they claimed such a great success.

they are a bunch of anti car twerps who's only interest is to drive motorists off the roads, or at least onto the country lanes that are so much better at carrying the load - at least that's how it appears to me
