Ontario is raising speed limits on parts of Highway 400, giving drivers a higher maximum speed on the route north of Toronto this weekend. City News Toronto reports the change applies as of Friday on Highway 400 between Highway 401 and Lake Joseph Road, where the speed limit increases to 110 kilometres per hour.
Both outlets also note that the adjustment is part of a broader set of speed-limit increases across Ontario. Toronto Sun adds that other highways see speed limits rise as well, with increments described as increasing by 10 kilometres per hour on additional routes. The outlets do not describe enforcement changes, timelines beyond the Friday effective date for Highway 400, or any safety rationale for the increases.
