Winnipeg school zones reinforced as kids head back to class

The province is reminding motorists that school zones across Winnipeg will be reinforced starting Sept. 1 as kids head back to class.

Reduced-speed school zones apply to any street that borders a private or public school, which includes grade six or lower, is not a regional street and meets the requirements for signage set out in the Manitoba Reduced-Speed School Zones Regulation.

The maximum speed limit is 30 km/h between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. from Monday to Friday during the months of September until June.
