Wouldn the money spent on replacing signs, training police officers, etc. be better spent on enforcing the previous speed limits?
A. The amount of money spent on replacing speed limit signs is a one-time implementation cost. Incidentally, this cost was budgeted prior to this effort due to TxDOT’s cycle of speed limit sign maintenance and replacement. Training of police officers and the general public is incorporated into existing air quality programs used to explain and educate the region why these efforts are necessary to improve the air we breathe and quality of life.
