Lower speed limit signs coming to East York … but not right away
New signs for reduced speed limits will not be posted on residential streets in East York until early next year, according to Toronto and East York Transportation Services. The vote to reduce speed limits was approved unanimously by the Toronto and East York community council in early September. The speed limit on some residential roads in East York officially went from 40 kilometres per hour to 30, a week ago. Toronto and East York Transportation Services supervisor Sandra Burk said the delay in posting the signs is because the process is complex.
