Speed limit changes coming to Hines Road and Caldwell Road

​

The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that the speed limit will be reduced on segments of Hines Road and Caldwell Road in Shearwater/Eastern Passage.

​

Hines Road between Raptor Way and Caldwell Road will be reduced from 80 km/h to 70 km/h. Caldwell Road between Hines Road and De Said Lake will be reduced from 80 km/h to 70 km/h. Caldwell Road between Hines Road and Civic 1500 will be reduced​ from 70 km/h to 60 km/h.​ ​

​

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.
