West Grey council has approved a speed limit evaluation policy to set a consistent, evidence-based process for reviewing requests to change posted speed limits on roads under the municipality’s jurisdiction, according to the municipality’s Nov. 3 meeting highlights.
The highlights do not list every technical factor in the policy. Bayshore Broadcasting, reporting on the same decision Nov. 7, said the evaluation considers operating speed, road function, geometry, sight distance, collision history, roadside development and vulnerable road users, and that staff would use a two-stage screening and review process.
Council’s next regular meeting is Dec. 1 at 9 a.m., the municipality says.
