Vision Zero Road Safety Plan Speed Limit Reductions to 30 Kilometres Per Hour on Local Roads, Public Lanes

The Vision Zero Speed Management Strategy includes a program for reducing speed limits on local roads, as defined in the City's Road Classification System, and public lanes or public alleys, to 30 kilometres per hour , on a neighbourhood basis. With this approach the City is no longer required to sign every individual street within that designated area, but only the entry and exit points to / from the designated area where speed limits change and any internal roads with a different speed limit. At it's meeting on November 8, 2023, City Council authorized the inclusion of collector roads within designated areas with a speed limit of 30 kilometres per hour under section 950-701 of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 950, Traffic and Parking. The purpose of this report is to recommend area-based speed limit reductions to 30 kilometres per hour on public lanes or public alleys, local roads, and existing 30 kilometres per hour collector roads in North York Community Council area as part of the Vision Zero Road Safety Plan, Speed Management Strategy.
