- Staff · April 3, 2024Speed samples will be taken on Bancroft Ave to determine if a speed table is needed.
- Staff · October 1, 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 sample on Bancroft Ave measured 26mph. The speed sample is in general compliance with the 25-mph speed for residential streets and speed tables are not planned.
