Radar Board Program

The Town of Newmarket uses radar speed boards as part of our Speed Management Program. These radar speed boards can be seen around different areas of Town in the form of a trailer, or a sign mounted to a pole.

When a vehicle approaches one of these signs, the digital display will come to life, showing the driver their speed. If the driver's speed is greater than the posted speed limit for that street, the display will start to flash, reminding the driver to rethink their speed and slow down.

In 2022, Newmarket expanded its radar program by acquiring new radar boards for a total of twenty-one (21) (three (3) for each Ward). These new radar boards are powered by solar panels and installed at a location for approximately a month. The speed data collected by these boards are available below.
