The Town of Cobourg’s Road Safety Response Team would like to remind residents to be safe on the roads by obeying the speed limits and exercising patience while driving on municipal roadways.
The RSRT meet to discuss road related safety concerns that are brought forward by residents.
Many of the concerns received are related to speeding and requests for speed limit reductions.
The Province of Ontario has a speed limit of 50 km/hour in urban areas, which applies to all roads without requiring a posted speed limit.
It is only a requirement to post speed limits for areas where the speed limit is higher or lower than 50km/hour.
