Engineering and Traffic (Speed Zone) Survey
The City’s Engineering and Traffic Survey (often referred to as a Speed Zone Survey) is the approved and governing document for speed limits on all City Streets.  The Study is conducted by a licensed Traffic Engineer in compliance with guidelines contained in the latest versions of the California Vehicle Code and the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.  The Traffic Engineering Study is submitted to City Council for approval and adopted via passing of a City Ordinance.  The approved Speed Zone Study is distributed to the Sheriff’s Department for their use in enforcement of speed limits.
