A MANDATORY 20mph speed limit is coming into effect on roads in Buckley and its surrounding areas from next week,
From Monday (February 28), all all unclassified roads (30mph) within Buckley, Mynydd Isa, Bryn-y-Baal and New Brighton will be reduced to 20mph.
This is with the exception of the A549 between Wylfa Roundabout and Dirty Mile, Dobshill.
It is part of pilot scheme which is seeing eight areas of Wales take part.
It follows figures being published which show half of all road accidents which resulted in injury in 2018 happened in 30mph zones.
New 20mph signs have been erected in recent weeks, and have been covered over with black plastic ahead of the roll out on Monday (February 28).
Do you agree with the implementation of a 20mph limit in Buckley?
Do you think it's a positive step to improve road safety? Or a step too far?
