Speed survey suggests raising speed limit, however city did not do so. Wonder why they would go against expert recommendation...

The State of Colonial Heights Sidewalks

Hey CH, I recently made a post on my blog about the sidewalks in Colonial Heights. I was interested in what the city's Reddit users thought about the topic. Also any feedback on the blog post, the GIS maps, or any other aspects of the post are welcome. I am new to blog writing, GIS mapping, and website design in general. Thanks!
