criteria outlined in Section 12-9A-8 of the Town of Vail Municipal

Greg Morrison ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider results of the
Tom Moorhead speed studies and the recommendation that the Town of Vail

BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Town of Vail has been
enforcing traffic regulations from the 1977 edition of the Model
Traffic Code as adopted by Ordinance No. 37, Series of 1978.
The Traffic Code was revised in 1995 and is recommended for
adoption by the Vail Town Council. The Model Traffic Code
provides a residential speed limit of 30 mph. The Public Works
Department and the Vail Police Department have in cooperation
conducted specific speed studies throughout the Town to
establish the appropriate speeds on our residential streets. The
Code requires that to lower the specified 30 mph speed limit it is
necessary to have specific speed studies to justify such reduced
speed limits.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Based upon the speed studies
conducted and their results, it is the recommendation that the
Town of Vail residential streets have a speed limit of 25 mph
unless otherwise posted.
