A4128 Wycombe Road, Prestwood Speed Limit Reduction

Opens 29 Aug 2025

Closes 26 Sep 2025

Overview

We are seeking your views on our proposal to reduce the speed limit on the A4128 Wycombe Road, Prestwood from 40mph to 30mph. The speed limit reduction has been proposed to be from the junction with Lodge Lane to the north, to a point just south of the junction between Peterley Lane and Perks Lane.

Background and Our Aim

A desire by Great Missenden Parish Council, this proposal originally had gone through a local survey, with a majority of residents expressing their support in reducing the speed limit.

Following this survey, Buckinghamshire Highways has been asked to carry out the legal work in order to formally reduce the speed limit from 40mph to 30mph.

Our aim is to reduce the speed limit and to install speed limit signs and road markings within the extents in the table below:

Road Name (And Extents) What are we proposing?
A4128 Wycombe Road, Prestwood (from a point c. 76 metres south-east from the junction with Lodge Lane, to a point c. 70 metres south of the junction with Perks Lane and Peterley Lane) Reduce the existing speed limit from 40mph to 30mph
Peterley Lane, Prestwood (from the junction with the A4128 in a easterly direction for about 26 metres
