  • 20 mph roads

    Ive had to travel to Cardiff a few times recently to see my daughter in Cyncoed Campus, or take my youngest to the dry ski slope in Fairwater and I have to say that Drakeford has well and truly done a number on the roads in Cardiff.

    They are ten times worse than the 20mph zones thats been implemented in Merthyr. You city dwellers have been well and truly shafted,

    20mph in the large, wide roads in the leafy suburbs from Manor Way, over towards the Heath and Cyncoed.

    The worst though has to 20 mph on the main road from Taffs Well, through Morganstown and all the way through Radyr. And also a speed camera at the bottom of the hill coming the other way from Fairwater to Radyr where theres practically no houses and almost impossible to not go above 20mph unless pressing down on the brake.

    I think Drakeford sometimes gets a rough deal on here, getting blamed for things to distarct from the failings of Westminster, but he deserves all the abuse he gets for this 20mph pearl of wisdom.

    Absolutely bonkers.

      The main Radyr/Morganstown Road is ridiculous. Fair enough outside Radyr Comp but that should be it.

          Ive only done it twice and already lost the will to live and my daughter is booked in for another 4 Sundays. Takes me longer to get from the Ty Nant pub to the ski slope than it does to get from Merthyr to Taffs Wells!

            Well done, I got through to you took a few years but you now understand, and some bellends are still defending it saying it's fine doesn't make any difference.

                    I swear I always come off Llantrisant Road right behind the same Dacia Sandero every time I do the journey up to the A470. When those green smiley lights come on flashing '20' and I know I'm still doing 17mph !!! It's a long, boring crawl..

                        Personally, I think 20mph roads are a good idea in the right areas. It's the ridiculous inconsistencies I don't get.

                        I have a house on the B4557 in a village near Aberystwyth. The B4577 is intersected by the B4337 in the middle of the village. At the intersection there's a pub, a bus stop, a post office and a kindergarten. Guess the speed limit.

                          I dont mind it too much T.B.F, but it's by design.
