The speed limit on Spofforth Hill (main road from Harrogate into Wetherby) was changed yesterday from 40 to 30 mph. The BIB had a speed trap on this road this afternoon.

Would be surprised if they were not just warning people.
I've never worked out why that bit was ever a 40. Just as many hazards as further down the road in the 30.

Wasn't that long ago when it was all 40!

30 is probably more suitable.

Last Saturday night it didn't stop some tt in a white Audi A5 sat up my arse because I dared to actually do 30 from the 40 limit.

Pah, I remember the road to Kirk Deighton being 40!
