The geographic descriptions of reduced-speed zones on a number of Ontario King's Highways have been revised. On Highway 6 in Manitoulin District, zone boundaries have been redrawn to reference updated road names and municipal boundaries, including a new 80 km/h segment through the Sheguiandah Indian Reserve and the Town of Northeastern Manitoulin and the Islands. On Highway 11, new reduced-speed zones have been added near Black River-Matheson and the Kenogami River bridge area, and existing zone descriptions have been rewritten to use current road reference points. On Highway 17 in Algoma District, speed zone boundaries near the Fisher and Hunt townships have been revised and a previously revoked provision has been replaced with an active zone. On Highway 101, zone endpoints in Black River-Matheson have been updated. On Highway 518 in Parry Sound District, several zone boundary points have shifted, adding two new transitional speed segments near West Bear Lake Road and East Bear Lake Road. Drivers, commercial operators, and enforcement agencies travelling these routes should note that the precise start and end points of posted speed zones have changed.
