Board considers speed-limit coordination and LPR data for Route 46 bridge work
Summary
Police Chief Steve Lowell raised traffic-speed and detour-signage concerns tied to bridge construction on Route 46. The Board noted that speed-limit changes require Madison County coordination and discussed repositioning a License Plate Reader trailer to gather data for targeted enforcement.
Police Chief Steve Lowell alerted the Traffic Safety Board April 21 to concerns about traffic speeds and temporary detour conditions associated with bridge construction on Route 46. Board members emphasized that any municipal change to speed limits on certain stretches would require coordination with Madison County.
Traffic Advisor Shawn Palmer said additional research is needed to determine feasible changes. Lieutenant Keith Hudson noted that a License Plate Reader (LPR) trailer is deployed on North Lake Street and suggested it "could be repositioned further along the roadway to gather additional data and monitor compliance," which the Board discussed as a means to support targeted enforcement.
