Roads in Jersey
Roads in Jersey are labelled "A", "B" or "C" in a similar scheme to those used in Great Britain, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man. The maximum speed limit on Jersey's roads is 40 mph. On 18 January[which year?], Transport Minister Deputy Kevin Lewis announced that the speed limit on several Jersey roads would be lowered to 30 miles per hour. Deputy Lewis said that changes came following requests from parish officials.
A Visite du Branchage is an inspection of roads to ensure property owners have complied with the laws against vegetation encroaching on the highway.
