TWENTY miles-per-hour speed limits could come into force in Bromley Cross and Horwich.

Bolton Council wants the new restrictions to apply in residential roads south of Darwen Road between Higher Ridings and Guild Street and streets to the north of Darwen Road south of its junction with the A666 Blackburn Road in Bromley Cross. There are also plans to bring in the new speed limit in Horwich North.

Objections to the plans can be sent by email to highways@bolton.gov.uk before September 8.
