AI Summary

This bill aims to enhance local road construction by allowing cities and towns to set their own speed limits for public ways, rather than being required by the state to design roads with speeds exceeding the posted limits. The bill seeks to promote efficiency and cost-savings by giving municipalities more autonomy in determining appropriate speed limits for their local roads upon completion of construction or reconstruction projects.
