Portland Beach Road will have its national speed limit stretch reduced from 60mph to 50mph.
Dorset Council has issued a public notice for reducing the speed limit on the stretch of the A354 connecting Portland with the mainland.
The new speed limit will come into operation on Friday, December 1.
The road has seen three fatal collisions in recent years and there is also an adjacent cycle path running alongside with no physical barrier separating bicycles and vehicles.
