REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §11-803(a), (c), and (d).
In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the
present reference to a posted limit "lawfully"
in effect on the specified date is deleted;
see revisor's note to §21—802 of this
subtitle.
Also in subsection (a) (2) , the date "December
31, 1974"—-rather than "December 31, 1970"—-is
substituted for the present reference to "the
date prior to January 1, 1971". This
substitution is made to conform to similar
changes made in prior years to update "1971"
references to "1974". See, e.g., Ch. 175,
Acts of 1975, as it amended present Art. 66
1/2, §11-801(c), now §21-801.1 (c) of this
subtitle.
In subsection (c) of this section, the present
phrase "in a municipality" is deleted as
unnecessary and — in light of the definition
of "local authority" to include county
authorities — misleading.
The only other changes are in style.
Present §11—803(b) which purports to require
investigations and the establishment of
greater or lesser speed limits, is deleted as
inconsistent with subsection (a) of this
section and otherwise unnecessary.
21-803.1. SCHOOL ZONES.
(A) ESTABLISHMENT.
ON THE REQUEST OF ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION, THE
STATE HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION MAY ESTABLISH SPEED ZONES
AND MAXIMUM SPEED LIMITS WITHIN A HALF-MILE RADIUS OF
ANY SCHOOL LOCATED ADJACENT TO ANY HIGHWAY IN THE
POLITICAL SUBDIVISION.
(B) SIGNS.
ON EACH HIGHWAY WHERE A SPEED ZONE OR SPEED LIMIT
IS ESTABLISHED UNDER THIS SECTION, THE STATE HIGHWAY
ADMINISTRATION SHALL PLACE SIGNS DESIGNATING THE ZONE
AND THE MAXIMUM SPEED LIMITS IN IT. THE POLITICAL
SUBDIVISION SHALL PAY THE STATE HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION
THE COST OF PLACING AND MAINTAINING THESE SIGNS.
(C) WHEN LIMIT EFFECTIVE.
