LaValle, P.E. Chief Engineer Suffolk County Department of Public Works 335 Yaphank Avenue Yaphank, NY 11980 Dear Mr. LaVaile: Speed Limit Request CR 48 at Wesq~halia Avenue CR 48 at Cox Neck Road Mattituek Our Case No. 979780 We have completed our investigation of the referenced locations, and based on the radar data collected, the current 45 mph speed limit was found to be appropriate. With the concurrence of Bill Shannon of your office, we expanded our speed study to the area between Cox Neek Road and Westphalia Avenue that is currently posted at 55 mph. We found that the posting of 55 mph speed limit for seven tenths of one mile was creating higher speeds within the 45 mph section near Cox Neck Road and Westphalia Avenue. Therefore, we feel it is appropriate at this time to lower the 55 mph speed limit to 45 mph between Cox Neck Road and Westphalia Avenue. Although we establish speed limits within the Town of Southold, the county is responsible for the installation and maintenance of the speed limit signs at this location. Attached for your referenced is a copy of the ordinance concerning the new regulation. Thank you for your interest in traffic safety. Very truly yours, THOMAS F. OELERICH, P.E.
