Edmontonians have been calling for a reduction in residential speed limits for over a decade. In January of 2020, City Administration will present City Council with new bylaws that may see the speeds on our residential and collector roads reduced.

The City of Edmonton will also be working to create a new version of the Road Safety Strategy. In this new version, more emphasis will be placed on the subjective experiences of community members and their perceptions of road safety within and throughout their neighbourhoods.

As the City of Edmonton endeavors to complete this work that will ultimately improve neighbourhood street safety and liveability, we are asking Community Leagues to bring their local knowledge to the discussion. We want to know how improved traffic safety can improve neighbourhood liveability within your community.

The Edmonton Federation of Community Leagues (EFCL) is  collecting this data to inform a report on Community League preference for managing traffic safety that will be shared with the City of Edmonton.
