Slow zone

A slow zone, in the United States, is an area where a train is forced to slow down for either structural, construction, power, signal, or track problems. Slow zones limit a train to about 10-35 MPH. Notification to train crews is referred to as a "slow order."

In the United Kingdom this is called a speed restriction.
