Motorists taking the Kalhatti Ghat Road stretch from Thalaikunda to Masinagudi should not exceed 20 km an hour, those taking the district roads. A speed limit of 30km an hour has been set for district roads, while those withing the municipality limits of Ooty, Coonoor and Gudalur have been restricted to travelling at a speed of 20km only.

Severe action will be taken against defaulters, who will be zeroed in on with the help of high-tech CCTV cameras placed at important junctions, the administration said in a press release.
