Diana Wardle, 71, recently moved to the street from the Swansea Marina area and said she hoped the road would be reverted back to 30mph.
“People were sticking to the 20mph, stopping to let people cross even if they were nowhere near a crossing. But that lasted about two weeks,” she said.
“I don’t mind it being 20mph near the school, but [the full road] seems silly when other places aren’t.”
Taylor Richards, 33, said she often chose to use the parallel Carmarthen Road, which has a 30mph limit, over Gors Avenue when travelling to visit her nan.
She said she was not surprised people were breaking the limit, adding: “This is like a main road, and it’s just so slow.
“It’s a waste of money that could have gone on other things, it’s absolutely mental.”
Ms Richards admitted “we do live in a city, it might be different in villages”, but felt the 20mph zones were just making people “more angry” behind the wheel, pointing out this had led to some cameras on the street, and across the wider Swansea area, being vandalised.
