![]() The policy, application & approval and administration guidelines can be found in the separate document, Speed Zoning - Policy and Application Guidelines. The purpose of this document is to provide a uniform approach for implementing and signposting of speed zones for a particular length of road ('linear' speed limits) or a network of roads ('area' speed limits). ![]() The Commissioner has delegated his authority to the Manager Traffic Management Services for approval of speed limits in all areas of Western Australia. Speed limit signs are regulatory signs and therefore the creation, modification, or removal of any speed zones requires the approval of the Commissioner of Main Roads. The objective of speed zoning is to provide credible speed limits which meet driver expectations while achieving a balance between road safety, land use, amenity and transport efficiency. Speed zoning is used to vary the speed limit of a road or area from that which would otherwise apply under the general limit applicable to the locality. The control of speed is an important aspect in effective traffic management. ![]() To the extent permitted by law, Main Roads, its employees, agents, authors and contributors are not liable for any loss resulting from any action taken or reliance made by you on the information herein displayed.
