The first confirmed location will be Commercial Street in Tower Hamlets, planned for introduction in April when all borough roads in Tower Hamlets are limited to 20mph.
Once implemented, the route could then be extended out to cover the wider Shoreditch Triangle and sections of the A10, in line with Hackney's 20mph borough wide aspirations.
The remaining seven pilots are then likely to be introduced throughout this year and next on a rolling basis, and in line with borough wide introductions where possible.
Almost 25% of London roads are now 20mph and London boroughs, such as Islington, Camden and the City of London, are leading the way with borough-wide 20mph limits on their roads. Hackney is also seeking to introduce 20mph next year.
In 2013, the Mayor and TfL published Safe Streets for London - an ambitious plan to make roads safer for everyone who uses them – and with a road safety target for London to reduce the number of people killed or seriously injured by 40% by 2020.
TfL will now work closely with the relevant boroughs to investigate the potential for 20mph speed limit pilots at the following locations:
Upper Street and Holloway Road (between Pentonville Road and Seven Sisters Road)
Westminster Bridge, Stamford Street and Southwark St (between Victoria Embankment and Borough High Street - this trial would also incorporate the previous 20mph trial at Waterloo Roundabout)
Brixton Town Centre (between St Matthews Road and Stockwell Park Walk)
Clapham High Street (between Clapham Park Road and Bedford Road, which forms part of Cycle Superhighway 7)
Earls Court Road and Redcliffe Gardens (between A4 Cromwell Road and Fulham Road)
Kings Cross Road and Farringdon Road (between Pentonville Road and Charterhouse Road, linking up with the previous 20mph trial along Farringdon St and Blackfriars Bridge)
Camden Street (between Camden Road and Crowndale Road)
