Project Update: February 28

In anticipation of the new police facility and middle school being built on the north side of town, County Rd. 15 has undergone some speed limit changes. When traveling southbound on CR 15, the speed limit between CR 72 and the future middle school has been lowered to 45mph, then to 40mph from the future middle school to the railroad tracks. When traveling northbound, the speed limit between the railroad crossing and the future middle school has been lowered to 40mph, and has been lowered from 55 mph to 40 mph in between the future middle school and CR 15.
It’s evident that, with all the construction, the roadway has taken a little bit of a beating. This speed limit reduction doesn’t only make passing the work zone safer, but it will make the area safer for children and law enforcement once the new facilities are open and occupied.
