February 6, 2015 Victoria Street Reconstruction Project Update 23 Page of -The two horizontal curves along Victoria are 20 mile per hour curves which presents a significant 20 mph difference in posted speed limit to safe travel speed through the curve -There are a sufficient number of driveways and cross streets to promote an urban section speed limit -The new roadway design will have narrower through lanes and a pathway along one side to present a narrower corridor to drivers which will hopefully have an impact on the prevailing speed It should be pointed out that the posting of a speed limit alone will not change driver behavior. One aspect of this recommendation will be to consider temporary tools to help promote the new speed limit such as speed display signs. Also the new roadway will have narrower through lanes and a new pathway which may have an influence on the prevailing speed along Victoria Street. We welcome any feedback on this proposal to lower the speed limit on Victoria Street from County Road B to Larpenteur Avenue. Finally, please remember that the City is holding a Public Hearing in order to receive public comment on the proposed project and the associated assessments on Monday, February 23, 2015. The Council meeting will start at 6 PM with the actual project discussion and hearing occurring sometime after 6:30 PM.
