Analvsis <br />The analysis took into account the nature of the roadway, surrounding land use, intersection and <br />driveway sight distances, traffic volume and speed data. <br />Due to the very flat terrain and straight alignment sight distance along Mayflower is not a limiting factor <br />for speeds. <br />VII. Coordination with St Joseph County <br />The proposed reduction of speed limit was coordinated with St. Joseph County since a portion of <br />Mayflower Road is under county jurisdiction. Since this area meets the definition of an Urban District, <br />30 MPH speed would be permitted, per Indiana Code (IC 9-21-5-2 and IC 9-13-2-193): <br />City of South Bend Department of Public Works, Division of Engineering 3 <br />October 17, 2016 <br />
