MOVES to introduce a 20mph zone on Hedge End's Wildern Lane have been backed by members of Eastleigh Borough Council local area committee.
Speeds on the road running by Wildern and Shamblehurst schools have already been kept down by the use of various traffic-calming measures.
Now council engineers are looking to bring the speed limit down by ten mph between a point 75 metres north of the junction with Lower Northam Road and the roundabout at the junction of Charles Watts Way and Grange Road. A council spokesman said: "It is desirable to provide a safer road environment for vulnerable road-users."
