The Department of Transportation is updating speed limits on several highways in Union County to improve safety and clarify outdated language. Most changes are minor refinements—adjusting distance measurements by a few tenths of a mile, reducing the weigh station speed limit from 20 to 15 mph, and clarifying which roads are under state jurisdiction. The department is also removing the outdated State Trunk Highway 105 speed zone that no longer applies and adding new speed zones for recently constructed roads near Interstate 29 exits and in Beresford.
