Best practices dictate that you start at the local municipal level, and ascertain the requirments in order to obtain the classification that you want.

Without success, then, you can move up the ladder to the provincial level and repeat the process.

Since the complex may also own the roadways -- meaning, they are not public roadways -- you may have difficulty enforcing speed laws with the local police. You may therefore not be able to have them declared highways.

If the roadways are private, you can post speed limit signs and adapt your Rules to accommodate the speed limits. Keep all the license plate numbers allowed in the gated complex and install cameras. You can issue tickets automatically.

You may want to review this strategy with the association/ strata counsel, to verify that you are within the association's rights to implement such a scheme.
