SB21 allows the state to temporarily adjust speed limits on state highways in response to specific conditions, such as weather or traffic incidents, rather than keeping them fixed year-round. This gives transportation officials more flexibility to increase or decrease speed limits when road conditions warrant changes to improve safety or traffic flow. The bill authorizes these temporary variable speed limits under circumstances determined by the Department of Transportation.
