School zones and playground zones in Lethbridge could soon be the same.
The final decision will go to city council after the civic works standing policy committee a carried a motion recommending the change.
Currently, school zones are in effect from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays and the proposed change would turn them into regular playground zones. This would mean all 30 km/h zone would be in effect from 7:30 a.m. until 9 p.m. every day.
If the recommendation is approved, the changes would go into effect in the third quarter of 2023.
