The Nebraska Board of Public Roads Classifications and Standards will hold a public meeting on May 15 at 9 a.m. The meeting will take place at the Nebraska Department of Transportation Central Headquarters Building Auditorium, 1500 Nebraska Parkway in Lincoln. Board members will discuss a range of topics including program compliance certifications, a city request for speed limit adjustments, and ongoing regulatory updates.
The agenda includes review of highway program compliance, where 93 county and 517 municipal certifications have been received, while nine municipal certifications remain delinquent. The board will consider lifting suspensions of funds for four municipalities that recently filed certifications. An informal hearing is scheduled to address the City of Papillion’s request to post a 35 mph speed limit on two curves of a federal aid project arterial street.
Other business includes updates on proposed state highway minimum design standards revisions and progress on the merger of the board under recent legislation. There will also be a status report on board member appointments, some of which have expired or remain vacant. The meeting is open to the public, and further details can be obtained by calling (402) 479-4436.
The next board meeting is scheduled for July 17 at the same location.
