Speed limit reductions proposed in rural Lambton

Half a dozen roads across Lambton County could soon see reduced speed limits.

As part of a Speed Limit Review Study, it's being recommended that speed limits be adjusted along sections of Bentpath Line, Forest Road, London Line, Holt Line, Oil Heritage Road and Bickford Line.

The speed limit, in most cases, would drop from 90 kilometres per hour to 80 km/h, except on Bentpath Line in the area of the Enbridge Gas facility and along London Line in the area of Oil Heritage Road, where the speed limit would be lowered to 70 km/h.

The proposed changes will be presented to Lambton County Council for consideration and approval.
