Pictured is a portion of County Road 716A where county officials are seeking to lower the speed limit from 55 to 45 mph. A company hired by the county to do a recent traffic study recommends the speed zone change due to the number of driveway accesses, the closeness of the church to the roadway, prior accidents and other factors. The issue will be reviewed and decided by the Ohio Department of Transportation.
