Speed Severity Report

The Macon-Bibb Traffic Engineer has prepared a Speed Severity Report for Stinsonville Road. Here is an excerpt from his findings:

While the study show vehicles are exceeding the posted speed limit, the average speed is 26 mph. From a traffic engineering perspective, this does not constitute a speeding problem. We look at the average daily traffic to determine speed severity. If the average speed exceeds the posted speed limit by 11 mph, this would present a problem. However, this study shows the average vehicle is traveling 26 mph, while the average vehicle exceeding the posted speed limit is traveling 31 mph.
