So no, currently they're not doing anything else.
Technically, they aren't doing anything. This is "just" an announcement if you're going to be pedantic.
Waterloo, Ontario, Canada is going through a similar process of lowering speed limits in residential areas. The planning staff said they needed the speed lowered so they could implement these traffic calming measures, otherwise the speed limit would be higher than the street design can accommodate. Obviously, the devil is in the details, but it's a good and important first step.
