Manitoba increases highway speed limits

The province of Manitoba will enact a higher speed limit July 1 on some highways.

Ron Lemieux, Minister of Manitoba Infrastructure and Transportation, said the higher speed limit is not an invitation to speed, however. Lemieux made a second announcement that the province was increasing fines for all speeding infractions.

The higher speed limit of 110 kilometers per hour, or 68 mph, will replace the current 100 km/h, or 62 mph, limit on Provincial Highway 1 from the Saskatchewan border to Virden, and on Provincial Highway 75 from the U.S. border crossing at Emerson/Pembina, ND, to the community of St. Jean Baptiste.
