What Is Your Opinion on Increasing the State Highway Speed Limit? [POLL]
Last week we posted an article saying that WYDOT was considering increasing the speed limit for state highways by five miles per hour.
Little change is seen with the five mile per hour increase on interstate highways. However, WYDOT District One Engineer Pat Persson has said changing the limit on two-lane highways could have further costs with longer passing lanes and additional signage.
Do the benefits outweigh the costs?
What do you think?
