Limited 'Slow The Fast Down' Signs Available For Batavia Residents
Batavians can pick up a sign from the city to place on their front lawns as a reminder to drivers to follow speed limits.
BATAVIA, IL — The "Slow the Fast Down" signs are an effort to provide a visual reminder to drivers to abide by the speed limit, especially in the warmer months when more pedestrians and bicyclists are sharing the road.
The City of Batavia hopes to raise awareness about the dangers of speeding and distracted driving which continues to be a top traffic safety issue in the area.
