Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations revoke the 60 miles per hour speed limit on the M5 motorway between junctions 1 and 3 and on slip roads at junctions 1 and 2. In consequence, the national motorway speed limit will apply upon the coming into force of these Regulations.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for these Regulations as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen. A De Minimis Assessment and an Explanatory Memorandum are published alongside these Regulations at www.legislation.gov.uk.
