New Roads & Speeding in SL

Are you all enjoying our beautiful new roads?  Please be aware that the VDOT Contractor will be back at some point to enhance the road shoulder with the appropriate materials for that purpose and to paint the double yellow line on Cinnamon Teal Drive.

One problem with our beautiful new roads is that it’s going to be more difficult to keep to the 25-mph speed limit, but we owe it to our children, runners, walkers, dog walkers, and ourselves to adhere to the speed limit so that everyone can be safe in Summers. Landing.

The consensus at the annual meeting in 2023 was that speeding was a problem with no easy solution.  The speed limit on all Summers Landing roads is 25-mph.  Whether one believes that is too low or too high is irrelevant because that is what it is and anyone who exceeds that speed is violating the law.  It is also not uncommon for a vehicle to roll through a stop sign.

That Board will be asking the Spotsylvania County Sherrif’s Office for more enforcement, recognizing that the Sherrif’s resources for such enforcement are limited.  

Residents concerned about speeding on their street are advised to first gather information about day of the week, time of day, and even descriptions of specific vehicles speeding before calling that information in to the Sherrif’s Office.  The more specific the information, the more likely we are to get a car in the area at that time and location.

The Spotsylvania County Sherrif’s Office non-emergency number is (540) 582-7160.
