A TOWN council has pledged its support to tackle speeding on the Herefordshire border, with a possibility of reducing the speed limit to 20mph. Hay-on-Wye mayor Trudy Stedman said the town council had been sent five letters and an email from Newport Street asking if it would join a campaign with Cusop Parish Council to deal with speeding traffic. Newport Street runs from the Whitney-on-Wye toll bridge, along the England-Wales border and into Hay-on-Wye near the Co-op. In the meeting on April 12, Coun Simon Morris said the letters mentioned if the town council could work with the parish council, which is across the border in Herefordshire, to try and get the speed limit for the road reduced from 30mph to 20mph.
