Speed Limits Perception Survey Bodmin

Please complete our short survey to give your views. 

This short survey is aimed at residents living, working or travelling in Bodmin. We want to learn more about perceptions around 20mph speed limits in areas where they have not yet been introduced.

The survey should take around 10 minutes to complete. The survey will not be assessed or marked, so please be as honest as you can. Please complete all questions on your own as best you can. You can decide to stop taking the survey at any time. All responses will be treated confidentially and all reporting will be anonymous.

We hope to use the results to better understand how the 20mph speed limit influences driver perceptions and behaviours.

We will report the findings in scientific journals, at conferences, and on social media. We may also produce short reports to Cornwall Council.
