Starting Monday, the speed limit on Queen Elizabeth Driveway and a section of Colonel By Drive, from Bronson Avenue to Daly Avenue, will be reduced from 60 km/h to 40 km/h.
New speed limit signs will be installed on the federal roadways to inform drivers of the lower speed limit.
"This new change will ensure a uniform speed limit along these corridors, and increase safety on the parkways," the National Capital Commission said in a statement. "It will also make it easier for pedestrians and cyclists to access the Rideau Canal and surrounding pathways."
