45 MPH Signs installed last year on parts of Route 151 near Route 6 East
From minutes published by RuralNelson.org, project 151.org has learned the Nelson County Board of Supervisors has voted to reduce the speed limit on portions of Route 151 in Nelson County, Virginia.
Wording from RuralNelson.org minutes of that meeting on 6.26.08:
SPEED LIMIT/RT. 151 – Supervisors voted 4-0 to adopt a resolution requesting
that VDOT lower the speed limit on Rt. 151 from 55mph to 45mph from the Rt.
6 intersection through the southern intersection of Rt. 613 (Rodes Farm
entrance).
This is a sensible move and project151.org commends the BOS for making this move. It is common sense to have the speed limit the same all along that stretch of highway from Rodes Farm through the northern 45 MPH zone. Project 151.org encourages VDOT to follow the lead of the BOS and make the change.
We’d also like to commend both the VA State Police and Nelson County Sheriff’s Department for the continued increased enforcement on Route 151 and 6. The presence is having a very positive effect!
