Sydney speed limit dropped to 40km/h – and it could go even lower

AutoExec Summary
The City of Sydney is set to implement a 40km/h speed limit on all local and regional roads in a move to improve safety. This follows a reduction in speed limits across the area in recent years, with 75% already covered by a 40km/h limit. The new limit will be funded by the New South Wales Government and will apply to remaining regional and local roads managed by the City of Sydney. Lord Mayor Clover Moore AO believes that lower speeds drastically improve survival rates for people hit by vehicles. The City is also considering reducing the speed limit to 30km/h in high activity areas. A similar speed limit reduction was introduced in two Melbourne suburbs, Fitzroy and Collingwood, following a two-year council trial.
