The National Department of Transport has undertaken a study on speed limits and developed a new procedure for the setting of speed limits. Proposals have also been made regarding a new approach to managing speed limits. The purpose of this paper is to present the main findings of this study.| Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
