T0: E. V. Avery
FROM: R. G. Peterson
DATE: October 23, 1964
The Traffic Committee reviewed the existing 30 mile per hour speed
limit on Parkway Drive at some length at the last two meetings. They
recommended that the limit be raised to at least 35 miles per hour. The
current 30 mile per hour speed limit results in approximately 92% of the
vehicles exceeding the speed limit in this area. The 85th percentile
speed is 39.g miles per hour. Bill Chenoweth has been contacted, and
the County expects to request a determination of the speed limit by the
State also. �
