Bill > SB559

This bill proposes to lower the minimum speed limit that local authorities can set on certain roads from 25 miles per hour to 20 miles per hour, provided that this decision is supported by an engineering or traffic investigation. The bill also clarifies that the definitions of "urban residence district" and "business district," which are areas where these lower speed limits can be applied, are consistent with existing state laws. This change will take effect 60 days after the bill is passed.
