The City of London is implementing an Area Speed Limits program lowering speed limits on roads with high levels of pedestrian and cycling activity.
Lower speed limits make our streets safer for all road users. The City of London is continuing to implement Vision Zero Road Safety Strategy initiatives that work towards calmer streets, and will continue to monitor the use of streets to determine when and where additional safety measures might be needed.
Neighbourhood streets within four areas have speed limit reductions to 40 kilometers an hour. This program will not impact major roads bordering the area.
The City will continue to track the use of streets and impacts on transit to determine when and where future area speed limits will be introduced.
