Advocacy & Education

We advocate for 30 km/hr speed limits in school zones.

Why?

  • To improve cycling and pedestrian conditions on neighbourhood streets
  • To increase the likelihood a pedestrian or cyclist will survive if struck by a vehicle travelling at the posted speed limit
  • To reduce the distance needed for vehicles to stop safely
