Change to Traffic Speed on City Street

The next step in a traffic calming plan has been taken for a stretch of road known for speeding in East Saint John. Common council has passed the first and second reading of a by-law amendment to keep the speed limit on HeatherWay at 50 km/hour.

Signs posting the reduced speed from 60km per hour were put up late last year after an elderly woman was killed by a speeding vehicle in September. The city also has plans to eventually place speed humps on Heather Way to prevent cars from traveling faster than 50km/hour.
