DUBLIN, Ohio — Drivers in Dublin will soon have to drive a little bit slower on parts Riverside Drive.
The city announced on Thursday that the speed limit on Riverside Drive between Martin and Tuller roads will decrease from 40 mph to 25 mph.
The speed limit drop is part of the recently established Bridge Street/Riverside Drive Business District.
The 25 mph speed limit went into effect Oct. 12 and enforcement will begin Oct. 30.
The city says 30,000 vehicles drive through the area each day and leaders want to make sure the area's speed limit "supports safe pedestrian and traffic operations and reflects current conditions."
Drivers along Riverside Drive will see speed-trailer signs that indicate an upcoming change in the speed limit.
“When you drive in Dublin, your Dublin Police officers want you to feel a sense of security on the roads,” Deputy Chief Greg Lattanzi said. “By reducing speed on Riverside Drive, we can facilitate behavior changes in drivers that will help reduce traffic crashes while contributing to the overall safety of our community.”
