Speed limit sign at 40 km/h on a suburban street with cars. Background shows trees, buildings, and a safety zone notice. Overcast day.

Speeding in residential areas, especially near schools, parks, and senior centres, is a growing concern for many communities. In Ontario, Community Safety Zones are specially designated areas where enhanced enforcement and signage aim to protect our most vulnerable road users.

One tool being used in these zones is automated speed cameras, which ticket drivers who exceed posted limits. While Richmond Hill has not installed its own ASE cameras yet, York Region has deployed 40+ cameras in Community Safety Zones throughout the region, including in Richmond Hill.
