Increase Route 550 to 55mph


Increase Route 550 to 55mph
The Issue
The speed limit on PA route 550 south is too low and should be increased to 55mph. A large portion of motorists already consistently drive over 50mph on 550 daily and by increasing the speed limit the road would be made safer as the speed limit would more closely resemble the speed motorists actually travel on the road. This would also likely eliminate most tailgating and strings of traffic behind someone going “exactly 45 THE WHOLE WAY DOWN 550.”
