A pilot project that increase speed limits on some Ontario highways to 110km/h is here to stay and two of those sections are in Eastern Ontario.
The province announced yesterday, as of April 22, the speed limit will increase to 110km/h on Highway 417 from Ottawa to the Quebec border, a distance of 102 km, as well as a a 37 kilometre section of the 417 that runs from the Kanata area to Arnprior, the latter of which was not part of the 2019 pilot project.
The Ford government tested the speed limits over the last two years. Its own survey found that 80% of people supporter the higher speed limit.
