Titus County approves 25 mph sign for County Road 3065 in Precinct 3
Summary
At a special Titus County Commissioners Court meeting, the court approved posting a 25 mph speed limit sign on County Road 3065 in Precinct 3 after a commissioner said residents and nearby shop activity raised safety concerns.
The Titus County Commissioners Court approved posting a 25 mph speed limit sign on County Road 3065 in Precinct 3 during a special meeting.
A commissioner said residents and people working near a shop on the road asked for a lower posted speed to improve safety. "...just wanted people to slow down and make sure ... We're a little safer," an attending commissioner said during the discussion.
The court moved to approve the sign posting, the motion was seconded by Commissioner Parker, and the vote carried unanimously. The motion did not include an ordinance number or further implementation details; the court did not state a timeline for sign installation at the meeting.
Why it matters: a posted 25 mph speed limit is a local traffic-control measure intended to lower vehicle speeds where there is nearby pedestrian or shop activity. Local residents and businesses can expect a change to posted signage once county road crews implement the order.
Next steps: the court did not specify a firm installation date; staff follow-up was implied by the approval but not detailed in the meeting record.
