- Staff · June 5, 2024Speed samples will be taken on 5th Ave to determine if speed tables are 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 5th Ave measured 26mph. The speed sample is in general compliance with the 25-mph speed for residential streets and speed tables are not planned.
