Township Council Meeting — Packet

2970-26 Legislative History The Ordinance, which amends the Traffic Regulations of the Township, establishes a Speed Limit of 25 miles per hour (mph) on Mount Pleasant Avenue, between Prospect Avenue and Gregory Avenue, and establishes a 35 miles per hour (mph) limit between Gregory Avenue and Main Street. These changes are implemented at the request of the Essex County Engineer prior to the installation of new speed limit signs. The Municipal Engineer, in conjunction with and having the support of the West Orange Chief of Police agreed upon the 35MPH limit from Gregory Avenue to Main Street based on the review of data on vehicular speeds and vehicular volumes along Mount Pleasant Avenue and crash data. The Municipal Engineer has determined that the criteria of the New Jersey Department of Transportation and N.J.S.A. 39:4-98(b) 1 & 2 were met to establish these Speed Limits.
