Share your thoughts on speed limits in Community Safety Zones

There are many ways to get involved – pop-up events, virtual information sessions and an online survey

Road safety continues to be a priority for the City of Vaughan, and we’re taking many steps to reduce speeding in our community. As part of our ongoing commitment to protecting our most vulnerable road users, the City is assessing whether speed limits should be reduced in Community Safety Zones, which include all school zones in Vaughan – and we want your input.

The City is considering reducing speed limits from 40 to 30 kilometres per hour in Community Safety Zones. To inform this work, we would like to better understand your perspective on this potential change – and there are many ways you can have a say. Feedback collected will help determine if changes should be made to Vaughan’s Speed Limit Policy and Community Safety Zone Policy.

Here’s how you can get involved: 

• Attend an in-person pop-up event or a virtual information session. Visit the project webpage for opportunities to hear from the project team and ask questions.
• Complete an online survey by Tuesday, Aug. 5 to provide feedback on speeding, traffic and safety measures in Community Safety Zones.

The policy review will assess how a 30 kilometre per hour speed limit aligns with broader road safety strategies. It will examine existing traffic policies and their effectiveness, the alignment of speed limits with road classification and design, and how enforcement, education and engineering strategies can support compliance.
