Rod King

Founder, 20’s Plenty for Us

Rod King set up 20’s Plenty for Us in 2007 in order to assist communities wanting lower speed limits. With a focus on setting 20mph limits for most urban/village roads across a complete local authority, it now has over 700 local campaigns in UK, Ireland, USA, Canada and Australia. 20’s Plenty for Us is a not-for-profit organisation with a small core team, but thousands of local volunteers.

At global level 30km/h is recognised as the best-practice speed limit for streets shared between motors and vulnerable road users.

Rod is recognised for his UK and international work and has spoken at transport, active travel, road safety and public health conferences around the world. Rod has been involved in 20mph discussions with Welsh politicians, NGOs, stakeholders and communities for most of the last decade.
