EDINBURGH'S 20MPH ROLLOUT CONTINUES AS NEW ZONE SIGNS GO UP The Capital's rollout of 20mph speed limits for residential and shopping streets continues, with new signs and lines starting to be installed for Phase 2 from December. Following the introduction of slower speeds in the city centre and rural west Edinburgh (Phase 1) at the end of July 2016, the second stage of the citywide scheme consists of two zones, namely Zone 2 (North) and Zone 3 (South Central / East). This constitutes the largest construction phase of the overall rollout. Signs and lines advertising the new 20mph limits in these zones will be installed over the next few months, ahead of the slower speed limit coming into force from 28 February 2017.
