Coppell, Texas 75019
Subject: Speed Zones
Dear Mr. Witt:
Attached for your information and further handling is a computer printout of the speed
zone study for the frontage roads of SH 121 in the City of Coppell. We believe the
recommended speeds will correspond closely to the speeds at which the normal and
prudent driver will drive under the existing conditions.
Attached for your information is a sample speed zone ordinance that might serve as a
guide in the preparation of your speed zone ordinance. We will also furnish and install
the necessary signs at the proper locations upon receipt of the signed ordinance from
the City of Coppell establishing the new speed limits. If we have not received written
correspondence from your office within 90 days concerning this speed zone study, we
will assume concurrence and begin proceedings to have the zoning adopted by
Commission Minute.
We appreciate the interest you have shown and the cooperation you have given. If we
may be of further assistance, please feel free to contact Ms. Roxanne Cortez, P.E. at
the above address or by telephone at 214-320-6621.
Sincerely,
l SEP 1 5 2008
