Special to the Ledger
Drivers will be seeing
a drop in the speed limit

Westover Boulevard to
the intersection of Daw
son Road. This is the area
around the Albany Mall.
The speed limit will be
reduced from 35 mph to
25 mph on Jan. 2. The
reduction is in prepara
tion for a lane reduction
from four to two lanes
and traffic shift on Jan.

construction at the new

built under US 82/Liberty
Expressway.
The new extension
will provide an addi
tional direct connection
between the commercial
area surrounding Albany
Mall and Ledo Road and
growing southeast Lee
County, ft will relieve
congestion on Notting
ham Way and increase
safety.
