Alberta Initiates 120 km/h Speed Limit Pilot Project on Highway 2

Alberta has launched a pilot project testing 120 km/h speed limits on a 22 km stretch of Highway 2 south of Leduc. The project aims to study traffic flow, driver habits, and safety using sensors and monitors. A public survey last fall showed 68% support for increasing the speed limit on divided highways from 110 to 120 km/h. Local leaders, like Leduc County Mayor Tanni Doblanko, endorse the project, citing benefits for commuters, students, and businesses. Highways in the area are designed for these speeds, and data collected from this busy corridor will help determine if the limit can be expanded to other divided roads, including Highway 43 in the north.
