The city is wasting no time getting to work on the Red Hill Valley Parkway (RHVP).

Hamilton’s public works department says new speed limit signs will be installed this weekend between Greenhill Ave and the Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW), as the speed limit changes from 90 km/hr to 80 km/hr.

City crews will also be installing information signage along that section of the parkway throughout the weekend.

Hamilton Police will start enforcing the 80 km/hr limit at 9 a.m. Sunday.
