20 is Plenty
Resident Survey

The Transportation & Safety Committee (TSC) is considering reducing the speed limit on all local streets within the Town of Superior from 25 MPH to 20 MPH. The TSC is seeking input from residents and users of local streets on this change.

There is a growing movement (20 is Plenty) internationally to make 20 MPH the default speed limit on residential and urban streets. The goal is to improve safety and livability in residential neighborhoods by decreasing vehicle speeds. Many communities in Europe and Canada have adopted this program and a few, notably Portland and Seattle, in the US have adopted the program or are considering it. Aspen, Telluride and other jurisdictions in Colorado, mostly small mountain communities, have also adopted 15 MPH or 20 MPH speed limits on residential streets. The City of Boulder recently adopting a similar program and other communities in Colorado are considering this change.

Additional information on the rationale for this change along with its impact on Superior can be found on the Town’s website or by contacting the Public Works Department at 303-499-3675. Please provide your feedback on this change by completing the survey found on the Town’s website or by using the following link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/RDG27D2
The survey will close on January 14, 2021.
