This amendment replaces the single subsection (f) with two new subsections (f) and (g) that establish different procedures for local authorities to reduce speed limits on unpaved roads, including a new temporary speed limit option with required speed studies.
- Corrects grammatical article from 'a' to apply properly to the following noun. (Page 1, line 9)
- Updates the bill language to reference multiple subsections instead of a single subsection, specifically noting that subsection (g) is now being added. (Page 1, line 10)
- Replaces the original subsection (f) with a new two-part framework. New subsection (f) allows local authorities to permanently decrease speed limits on unpaved roads to 45 mph without a speed study, but requires consultation with the local engineer/road superintendent and law enforcement before implementation. New subsection (g) establishes an alternative temporary speed limit option that allows lower limits without a speed study, but requires: (1) consultation with engineer and law enforcement; (2) initiation of a speed study before implementation; (3) traffic speed data collection; (4) a maximum duration of 30 days after speed study completion; and (5) the speed study itself limited to 90 days for local engineers or private contractors, or 12 months for University of Wyoming studies. After the speed study is completed, the local authority must establish a permanent speed limit. The amendment also clarifies that these provisions apply only to localized geographic areas, not countywide limits. (Page 2, lines 15-19 and continuing through subsequent pages)
