24 Mile Section of I-295 Will Go Back to 65 MPH
The affected area is between Topsham and Falmouth where the current speed limit is 70 mph, but beginning March 27, that section of I-295 will go back to the 2014 speed limit of 65 mph. Since the speed limit went from 65 to 70 mph in 2014 there has been a 29% increase in traffic accidents between Falmouth and Brunswick.
Keep this speed limit change in mind because I’m sure when it first starts cops will be out looking to give tickets.
