00:00I am proud to announce that we are going to reduce the speed limit to 15 miles per hour
00:05outside all eligible 2,300 school zones.
00:17This encompasses every one of the 3,200 schools citywide across the five boroughs.
00:23This year, speed limits will be lowered at an additional 800 locations,
00:28bringing the total number of school zones with a 15-mile-per-hour speed limit to 1,300 by the
00:34end of 2026.
00:35While reducing citywide speed limits in one fell swoop would require a local legislative change to the city's administrative code,
00:43we are utilizing every tool we have through this immediate and sweeping executive action.
