The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that the speed limit will be reduced from 60 km/h to 50 km/h on a section of Fall River Road in Fall River.

The reduced speed zone is between Highway 2 and Garden View Drive.  

Crews will be posting the new signage this week.

This change is a result of an assessment of the corridor, related to changes in conditions and activities along the roadway.

This effort supports the municipality’s Strategic Road Safety Plan, which aims to reduce fatal and injury collisions on municipal roadways. For more information about the Strategic Road Safety Plan and other road safety countermeasures, visit halifax.ca/roadsafety.
