The City of Westlake is considering reducing the speed limit on a section of Rose Road from 35 mph to 25 mph. The decision will be discussed during the city's upcoming meeting on November 2nd.
According to the Westlake City Council agenda for the meeting, the council will review the 2022 TMS Traffic Study before determining the speed limit. The proposed change would apply to the stretch of Rose Road from Dover Center Road to Columbia Road.
Recommendations from the city's Engineering director, Law director, and chief of police have been taken into account in the decision-making process. The proposed ordinance states that the speed limit reduction is necessary for the health, safety, and welfare of those traveling along Rose Road.
The potential speed limit reduction aims to improve safety on this section of Rose Road. Lowering the speed limit could help reduce the risk of accidents and create a safer environment for both drivers and pedestrians.
The City of Westlake will make a final decision on the speed limit reduction during the November 2nd meeting. If approved, the new speed limit of 25 mph will be enforced on the designated section of Rose Road.
