Although the first day of school is a week away, the school zone speed limit changes today.
Thanks to the amended school zone speed limit by-law passed in February, all elementary school zones are now 30km/hr from 8am-5pm, Monday-Friday.
The RD Parker Collegiate school zone on Thompson Drive is 50km/hr at all times.
Drivers caught going over the posted speed limit can face fines. Going 10km/hr over the speed limit can cost you $181.50 and $312.25 for going 20km/hr over the speed limit.
The first day of school is on September 9th.
