💨 Abstract

The Isle of Man plans to introduce 20mph speed limits in residential areas, starting with its capital. This change will affect 30,000 drivers. Despite criticism about lack of consultation, the scheme has political backing and will be rolled out in phases, prioritizing areas around schools. The initiative, costing £400,000 over three years, has faced opposition but communities can still voice their views. The limits will be monitored and reviewed post-implementation.
