- Staff · June 7, 2023Reassigned.
- Staff · January 11, 2024Speed samples are planned on Stratford Rd to determine if speed tables are justified.
- Staff · April 11, 2024The 85th percentile speed, the speed that 85 percent of drivers travel at or below, is one of the best indicators of a reasonable and safe speed. The 85th percentile speed for a 48-hour period was 29 mph. This sample is in compliance with the posted 25 mph speed. Speed tables are not currently planned.
