Speed Limits
The maximum speed limit on Medicine Hat roads is 50 km per hour unless otherwise posted. Reduced speed limits in areas with heavy congestion and high pedestrian use help to improve public safety.
Setting speed limits alone is not always effective in improving safety and rely on enforcement to influence behaviour. That’s when modifying the built environment with traffic calming measures to reduce speed will make our streets safer.
Speed reader boards
A speed reader is an electronic sign that detects your current speed by radar and flashes if you are travelling above the posted speed limit.
