RE: P.O. No. 7024 —Reducing the Speed Limit along SH 73 from Mile Post 20.762
East to Mile Post 24.163 from 75 mph to 70 mph
Introduction:
Proposed Ordinance No. 7024 seeks City Council's approval to reduce the speed limit along SH
73 from mile post 20.762 east to mile post 24.163 from 75 mph to 70 mph.
Background:
The City of Port Arthur's landfill, which is located along SH 73, regularly receives vehicles.
Upon approaching the Landfill,these vehicles must drastically reduce their speed to safely enter
the premises.
Because of the accident occurrences in the area,the City's Public Works staff requested that the
Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) investigate the potential lowering of the speed
limit along SH 73 from mile post 20.762 east to mile post 24.163. The traffic survey,which was
completed on October 19, 2020, indicated that a speed limit reduction of 5 mph is warranted.
The attached speed zone strip map and minute order summarize their study.
Budget Impact:
There will be no budgetary impact to amend the ordinance.

Dear Ms. Roberts:
We have prepared and attached for your review a new proposed Speed Zone Strip Map to
reduce the speed limits on SH 73, in the city of Port Arthur, in Jefferson County. Limits are from
MP 20.762 east to MP 24.163 reducing the speed limit to 70 mph.
Please have the City of Port Arthur, execute an ordinance making the speed zone enforceable.
This ordinance must include the survey date (October 19, 2020), from the map. The survey
date is the only means of identifying this Speed Zone Strip Map from maps that may be made in
the future. Please send the original ordinance, affixed with the City Secretary's seal, back to us
for our further handling.
Your assistance in this matter is appreciated. If you have any questions, please contact me at
(409) 898-5778.
Sincerely,
DocuSigned'by;

Exhibit
B
TEXAS TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
VARIOUS Counties MINUTE ORDER Page 1 of I
VARIOUS Districts
Transportation Code, §545.352 establishes prima facie reasonable and prudent speed limits
for various categories of public roads,streets and highways.
Transportation Code, §545.353 empowers the Texas Transportation Commission
(commission)to alter those prima facie limits on any part of the state highway system as determined
from the results of an engineering and traffic investigation conducted according to the procedures
adopted by the commission.
The Texas Department of Transportation(department) has conducted the prescribed
engineering and traffic investigations to determine reasonable and safe prima facie maximum speed
limits for those segments of the state highway system shown in Exhibits A and B.
Exhibit A lists construction speed zones in effect when signs are displayed within
construction projects. The completion and/or acceptance of each project shall cancel the provision of
this minute order applying to said project and any remaining construction speed zone signs shall be
removed.
Exhibit B lists speed zones for sections of highways where engineering and traffic
investigations justify the need to alter the speeds.
It has also been determined that the speed limits on the segments of the state highway system,
previously established by the commission by minute order and listed in Exhibit C, are no longer
necessary or have been incorporated by the city which has the authority to set the speed limits on
these sections of the highway.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED by the commission that the reasonable and safe prima facie
maximum speed limits determined in accordance with the department's "Procedures for Establishing
Speed Zones" and shown on the attached Exhibits A and B are declared as tabulated in those exhibits.
The executive director is directed to implement this order for control and enforcement purposes by
the erection of appropriate signs showing the prima facie maximum speed limits.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a provision of any prior order by the commission which is
in conflict with a provision of this order is superseded to the extent of that conflict,and that the
portions of minute orders establishing speed zones shown on the attached Exhibit C are canceled.
