A. Enforcement. The borough shall inspect road construction to ensure adherence to an approved plat and borough standards. The developer shall bear all the costs of such road construction inspection. Inspection may include test holes; engineering analysis of road geometry, drainage, and general adequacy for anticipated traffic. Construction not adhering to an approved design or construction standards shall be brought into compliance by the developer.

B. Design Speeds. All categories of roads named in this chapter have a statutory speed designation of 25 miles per hour for residential areas, except that collector roads may enjoy 35 miles per hour. Actual speed design will be determined by factors of terrain and construction costs. The posted speed may be lower than the design speed, and shall be set by the municipality with due consideration to neighborhood safety; presence of schools, houses, parks and crosswalks; the presence of driveways, parked vehicles and multiple turn locations and the effectiveness of enforcement.
