University of Minnesota Prof. Gary Davis will discuss findings from the LRRB study, Impact of Speed Limit Changes on Urban Streets. This research monitored driving speeds before and after posted changes to speed limits in St. Louis Park. The findings included a modest 1–2 mph reduction in mean speeds after the limits were lowered.
Jack Sullivan, City of St. Louis Park, will outline the city’s approach to the speed limit changes, offer perspectives on the study’s findings, and discuss a two-year review of the changes that is currently under way.
