Collier County motorists may notice changes to some speed limit signs as new speed limits along sections of three county roads are now in effect.
The Collier County Board of Commissioners recently adopted the new speed limits for sections of Collier Boulevard, Pine Ridge Road and Bailey Lane.
The new speed limits were adopted to improve the safety of the roadways and to provide better consistency with other speed limits in the county.
The Collier County Sheriff’s Office wants drivers to be aware of the new speed limits.
Here are the changes:
* The speed limit has been reduced to 50 mph on Collier Boulevard between Green Boulevard and Golden Gate Boulevard in Golden Gate. The previous speed limit was 55 mph.
* A 35-mph speed limit has been established on Bailey Lane between Coco Lakes Drive east to Airport-Pulling Road in North Naples. This section had no posted speed limit.
* The speed limit has been increased to 50 mph on Pine Ridge Road from Logan Boulevard to Collier Boulevard in Golden Gate. The previous speed limit was 45 mph.
New speed limit signs are posted. Bright orange flags will be installed on the signs to alert motorists to the changes.
