Harrisonburg is evaluating safety changes at several corridors rather than approving a final design at this meeting. Stone Spring Road will receive a broader roadway safety assessment, while police plan to use a speed radar trailer and conduct enforcement in the meantime. Staff are also considering lowering Water Street’s speed limit to 15 mph, but City Council approval would be required.
