Think it's time for the city to adjust the speed limit on the bridge from 40 to 60 km/hour and from the bridge to the overpass from 60 to 80 km/hour. Please!

Yeah lets just throw away safety and rules altogether. People should be allowed to drive across the bridge doing 80kms, while talking on their cell phone, eating a hamburger, holding a coffee, and steering with their knees.
How inconsiderate of the whole city to ask you to drive safely for 30 extra seconds across the bridge.

I agree completely.....its time to get back to normal. I am thankful that the repairs were made, but the bridge never was closed, weight restrictions and speed restrictions were put in place due to single lane traffic. All lanes are open, it makes no sense to have the speed limits continue to be restricted all the way out to 15th NW,
Not sure what your point is RandomGuy, I see people all over the city doing what you describe, not just across the bridge.

Even though its going to be like 2 or 3 years before the bridge is actually fixed... We are back to four lanes open, we should be back to normal speeds..

A hatred of non-city residents? Paranoid much? The speeds are in place because the bridge isn't 100% yet and having people brake from 80 to 40 is going to cause more accidents than raising the speed limit for that stretch of road.
Good grief, people! It'll mean, **maybe** a 30 second difference between the time you leave work/home and the time you get to where you're going. Trust me. You're not **that** important that the world can't wait 30 seconds for you.

Peg....
I understand what you mean about the police being there to enforce weight restrictions. But don't you think while they are there they might as well pull over a car or two, and maybe pass out some fines, because like it or not, the speed limits are posted, and if people are speeding, is that not breaking the law? And the more fines they hand out, perhaps the more money to go towards possibly getting that new bridge? Juss sayin'.....

the Speed limit can indeed be changed by one person in city hall. the Comment by City that a council meeting is required is a lie.
sickofit: have you read your post? do you realize how stupid it sounds by saying we should raise the limit cause people can't slow down to merge?
have you driven into Regina? or Saskatoon? How do you think ANYONE can safely make it there as the limits are reduced and folks have to merge?
Using your logic, 2nd Ave should be 100kph through the city, cause we have vehicles on the way in at 100... makes no sense
come on... it is an issue of drivers NOT FOLLOWING THE LAW, regardless of Where the speed changes.
if there is a reason for the limit being lower, then by all means it should be lower. but till it gets changed, it only delays you by 15 seconds.... 15 SECONDS!
I did the math from the bridge to the Garbage dump intxn.
if you could have done 90k it would be 64 seconds... (you remember there was a 70zone in there? so it would have been longer)
doing 60k all the way, it takes you 96 seconds..... 32 SECONDS MORE!
in total, You are delayed by 47 SECONDS! less than ONE MINUTE. (Yes, I AM Hollering at my computer)
Do you think 47 seconds is worth Dying for?? or even destroying you car, or Destroying someones Life over????
47 Seconds.
think about it.

I suppose the police could do other things, Guest, but then they'd be neglecting their primary job assignment, which is to make sure that the weight restrictions are obeyed. Unless, of course, you're more interested in catching a $50 ticket for speeding while an overweight semi causes the bridge to collapse entirely?
Manning a post isn't the world's most exciting job. I've done it and was bored to tears within minutes. However, it's a job that needs to be done and people are counting on the police to do that assigned task to the best of their ability, whether that job be manning a post at the end of the bridge or chasing down a criminal. Both tasks are important. If you have that much of an issue with speeders between PA and the Dump Road, maybe suggest that the police have a car in the area during peak times. I don't know if they have the manpower for it, but they might. You won't know unless you ask.
