40km per hour project

The reduction of speed to 40km per hour (from 50km per hour) on local residential streets, and some local distributor roads, is part of a joint proposal across the local governments of Subiaco, Cambridge, Vincent, South Perth and Victoria Park.

This initiative builds on a successful trial by the City of Vincent, which demonstrated that lower speeds reduced accident rates, encouraged walking and cycling, and improved community satisfaction with minimal impact on travel times.

There will be two engagement opportunities at Subi Farmers Market, on Saturday 3 May and Saturday 10 May, where you can drop in and ask the City about the project.
