Recommendation

This item was brought forward by Ald. Rick Lemke in February of 2020.  This item was placed on hold until engineering staff completed the speed studies at various locations of Northview Road.  Staff has concluded the study and presented findings to Ald. Lemke for his review.  The study findings will be presented by staff at the September 14, 2020 B&G meeting.  There is potentially more than one solution to the speed zone inconsistency and speed management of the corridor of Northview Road from Meadowbook Rd. to Delafield Street.  Ald. Lemke intends to be at the meeting and talk about his point of view and also hear from the Committee on their opinions.  At this time, the Department of Public Works does not have a particular recommendation.
