Speed Limits Map — NYC, by community district

The posted speed limit on every mapped street segment in New York City, 141,440 segments across the five boroughs, from NYC DOT's Vision Zero speed limit data. Since November 7, 2014 the citywide default has been 25 mph unless a street is signed otherwise; DOT marks each segment as signed or unsigned. Turn districts on and off below, search an address, or enter a street and cross streets. Every community district is labeled and colored on the map. The City Council, State Senate, State Assembly and Congressional districts that overlap the selected districts are listed as toggles; tap one to draw it. Tap any segment for the street, its speed limit, whether it is signed, and the district.

Sammy's Law 15 mph school zones. Sammy's Law, named for Sammy Cohen Eckstein, a 12-year-old killed by a driver in this district in 2013, gave New York City the authority to set speed limits below 25 mph. CB6 passed a resolution calling on DOT to implement 15 mph school zones across the whole district. In March 2026 Mayor Mamdani and NYC DOT announced 15 mph School Slow Zones at every eligible public, charter, independent and parochial school location in the city by the end of his first term, roughly 1,300 locations by the end of 2026 and all 2,300 after that, enforced by the city's school zone speed cameras. The "Sammy's Law 15 mph school zones" toggle shows that full build-out on any district you select: every street segment within 150 meters of a school (1,987 schools, 26,640 of the 141,440 segments citywide), the method used for the CB6 Sammy's Law map. Other streets fade back while it is on; each zone segment's tooltip shows the limit posted there today. Mayor's announcement, March 16, 2026

DOT advises that speed limits are subject to temporary or permanent change and that posted signage governs. Segments shown as "No value" carry a 0 in DOT's data; DOT's data dictionary does not define that value.
