  • Laxou-Vandœuvre: 110 km/h
  • Vandœuvre-A330: 90 km/h
  • A330-Lunéville: 110 km/h

Since 1 October 2009, 3 months after the A31 and at the same time as the A33, speed limits have been revised downwards. The only 130 km/h section between the A33 and Hudiviller has been lowered to 110 km/h.

At the end of 2016, variable message signs were installed between the Vandoeuvre University Hospital area and the A31 to vary speeds depending on traffic.
