(North Dakota Monitor) – North Dakota’s interstate speed limit is going up to 80 mph on Friday, but in some areas, the speed limit will go down.
The state is lowering the speed limit to 70 mph on interstate segments at Dickinson, Grand Forks, Jamestown, Valley City and Medora. Those areas had previously been 75 mph.
“The biggest change for people will be slowing down in those areas, and so I think that will be more what we’ll hear about after Aug. 1 than even the 80 miles per hour change,” Lt. Jenna Clawson Huibregtse with the North Dakota Highway Patrol said.
Bismarck and Fargo have already had slower interstate speeds and those areas are expanding.
