Just a heads up, more politically motivated speed limit changes have been approved and installed. I say politically motivated because the roads have not changed and I'm not aware of any serious crashes on these roads, just more riders enjoying the roads (possibly too much) and residents wanting them to go away.
20th Sideroad / River Road -
From Airport Road to Terra Nova was 80 and 70 kph, is all now 60 kph. River Road from Terra Nova to Prince of Wales was 60 kph and is now 50 kph, with a "Community Safety Zone" in Terra Nova and then again between Kilgorie and Prince of Wales Road. The section from Prince of Wales to Horning's Mills remains 60 kph, for now, but there is another "Community Safety Zone" near the Pine River Academy, which I don't recall seeing before. On my first ride through there following the change there was a visible presence of OPP, so take heed.
Hockley Valley Road -
A short section west of Airport Road will be dropped from 70 kph to 50 kph. Not installed the last time I was through there so I don't know how far west it will extend. I'm guessing it will likely go to 5th Line, which is the first concession road west of Airport Road. Too many full time residents on Cottage Road complaining they can't safely get in or out of their properties. Maybe a friggin' signal at Airport Road and Hockley Valley Road would improve safety in this area because that's where the collisions happen!
Highway 10 -
The section through Caledon Village, which is a 50 kph zone and largely ignored by everyone, has now seen the addition of a "Community Safety Zone". Watch for OPP to really up their game in this area.
