Over 500 streets across north and west Glasgow will have 20mph speed limits later this month as the citywide rollout continues.
The changes are part of a wider programme that will see around 3,800 streets and street sections across Glasgow change from 30mph to 20mph - supporting a national move towards lower speed limits in built-up areas.
Across the wards of Drumchapel/Anniesland, Hillhead, Maryhill and Partick East/Kelvindale, 531 streets or street sections will join Glasgow’s growing 20mph network.
A small number of streets within the neighbouring wards of Canal and Victoria Park will also be included at this time to support a practical and consistent rollout.
The new speed limits will focus on residential streets, routes to schools and other roads used every day by local communities, helping to create safer neighbourhoods and reduce the likelihood and severity of road traffic collisions.
Phase 2 of the citywide rollout follows the introduction of new, lower limits in Govan earlier this year, with work currently underway to deliver the remainder of Phase 1.
The legal order enabling the changes in the Phase 2 areas is expected to come into effect in late October 2026. Once the order is in place, work will begin to install the necessary signs and road markings, after which the new 20mph limits will come into effect.
Residents and businesses are invited to find out more about the new speed limits at a public information drop-in event at Netherton Community Centre, Netherton Road, on Wednesday 7 October, between 4pm and 7pm.
Cllr Angus Millar, City Convener for Transport and Climate said: “This next phase of Glasgow’s 20mph rollout will bring safer speed limits to communities across the north and west of the city, supporting safer local streets.
“Lower speeds reduce the likelihood of collisions and can lessen injury severity if incidents do happen. That’s why we are continuing to roll out 20mph limits in neighbourhoods across Glasgow as part of our wider commitment to safer, more liveable streets.
“Residents will begin to see new signs and road markings being installed later this month however before this work starts, I’d encourage local people and stakeholders to come along to the drop-in event at Netherton Community Centre on 7 October to find out more about the safer speed limits planned for their area.”
Delivery of Glasgow’s 20mph programme by area phase has been shaped by a detailed assessment of Glasgow’s road network, with the rollout order informed by collision data - particularly incidents involving people walking and cycling.
Roads with existing speed limits of 40mph or above are not affected.
