The Welsh parliament has passed a law bringing down the speed limit on all residential roads and busy streets to 20 mph (30 km/h). Not everyone is pleased.
Technically, they aren’t doing anything. This is “just” an announcement if you’re going to be pedantic.
Waterloo, Ontario, Canada is going through a similar process of lowering speed limits in residential areas.

Obviously, the devil is in the details, but it’s a good and important first step.
