Locals can have their say on plans to expand a 20mph speed zone in Warwick.

Warwickshire County Council is considering extended the lower speed limit to a number of residential streets near the racecourse.

The local authority says the change will " help improve the environment by reducing the risk of conflict between vehicular traffic, pedestrians and other road users".

It also said it will reduce danger to drivers and pedestrians.

Residents have until January 3 2025 to have their say
