Pelham drivers will soon be forced to drive slower in some areas, as Councillors voted last week to reduce the maximum speed limit to 40 km/h on several urban and rural roads, following a staff report that made such recommendations.
The speed limit changes include urban areas and villages of Fonthill, Fenwick, Ridgeville and North Pelham, as well as the section of Memorial Drive from Cream Street to Canboro Road.
Importantly, the new speed limit will not apply to the section of Canboro Road between the Fenwick and Ridgeville Boundaries, as an amendment was made for agricultural vehicle reasons.
