You asked
In response to a previous FOI request you advised as below
We’ve had to temporarily introduce a 40mph speed limit on the A20 Sidcup Road owing to ongoing surface water flooding and water sheeting which has caused a number of safety concerns.
The works to correct those issues were completed several weeks ago, yet the reduced limits still remain
Can you confirm when the limits will be reverted back to the original ones?
