4. How can I get the speed limit changed on a particular street?

There are two primary conditions that are considered when setting speed limits. The design of the roadway is a limiting factor for the maximum speed limit. The 85th percentile speed (the speed or below which 85% of the observed vehicles are traveling) of the existing traffic is the other primary consideration. If you have concerns about the speed limit on a roadway in Palm Beach County, contact the Action Center and they will have our Traffic Division study the conditions and also work with the Sheriff's Office to try to correct the problem.
