THE A96 TRUNK ROAD (INVERURIE

ROAD) (40mph & 50mph SPEED

LIMITS) ORDER 2016

Page 5: 2016 No. ROAD TRAFFIC - Transport Scotland · Limits Order) 2016 and comes into force on [ ] 2016. Speed restriction 2. No person may drive any motor vehicle at a speed exceeding—

A96 Trunk Road (Inverurie Road) (40mph and 50mph Speed Limits)

Order 2016

Statement of The Scottish Ministers’ reasons for proposing to make the above named Order.

Following completion of the A96 Craibstone Junction as part of the Aberdeen Western

Peripheral Route (“AWPR”) project, the Scottish Ministers propose to apply:-

a 40mph speed limit to those lengths of the A96 Trunk Road (Inverurie Road)

specified in Part 1 of the schedule of the Order and

a 50mph speed limit to the length of the A96 Trunk Road specified in Part 2 of the

schedule of the Order.

It is considered that this Order should be made in the interests of road safety, to ensure that

speed limits are appropriate and consistent to the new road layout and configurations

resulting from the construction of the new infrastructure related to the AWPR.
