State transportation officials announced Monday they intend to
lower the speed limit on a section of Highway 67 in Ramona early
The California Department of Transportation office in San Diego
said in a news release that it intends to post a 35 mph speed limit
along Highway 67 (Main Street) between 10th Street/Highway 78 and
Pala Street on Sept. 2.
The new speed limit will be a reduction from the current 45 mph
maximum between Pala Street and 14th Street, and 40 mph limit
between 14th and 10th streets.
Caltrans said the change is being triggered by recent traffic
surveys, which show that most cars are traveling close to 35 mph
through that area.
