Did you notice?
The posted speed limit from 34 Avenue to Highway 22 is now 60 km/hr!
During the May 22, 2019 Council Meeting, Bylaw 2019-07-P received Third Reading by Town Council allowing for the posted speed limit between 34 Avenue and Highway 22 to be increased to 60 km/hr.
A Speed Limit Review was completed by a transportation engineering firm and the analysis recommended that the speed limit be set at sixty kilometers per hour (60 km/h).
Signage was installed this morning to reflect the change!
That's awesome! Deep down my car always knew 😂 Thank you!
I wish it was 70 again
Great, so do we get photo radar refunds now that they’ve come to their senses? 😉😉

How about putting in a better cross walk by pleasant view one with light like in town , crossing there is so hard and dangerous, ppl dont notice ppl trying to cross!! now there just gonna be able to go faster , there are hundreds of residents in pleasant view , we should have a safer cross walk please.
