Plans Underway in Montgomery County to Set Speed Limits for 153 Miles of Paved Roads

Montgomery County Commissioners have approved an agreement with a Statesboro firm to initiate work on establishing speed limits for 153 miles of paved, off-system roadways in the county. At its February 8 session, the Commission approved a proposal for EMC Engineering Services, Inc., of Statesboro to provide engineering services for a lump sum fee of $26,000.

“The county has never established speed limits for offsystem, paved roads except those that were previously state routes,” County Administrator Brandon Braddy said. The project will be paid for with TSPLOST funds.
