There will be a new speed limit posted on Riley Highway from Rampart Road leading into and away from downtown Shelbyville.

To match the speed limit posted by the Indiana Department of Transportation north of Riley Highway, also known as State Road 9, the City of Shelbyville Board of Public Works and Safety agreed to lower the speed limit Tuesday morning along the Riley corridor from 50 miles per hour to 45.

In other board business:

Approved a request from Shelby Eastern Schools Superintendent Dr. Todd Hitchcock to move a Waldron school system sign that was damaged on Progress Parkway and County Road 125 East. The sign will be moved into the median at the intersection. Approved the hiring of two new detectives to the Shelbyville Police Department. Approved the same interlocal fuel agreement with Shelby County that the Shelbyville Common Council approved Monday night and approved the same interlocal recyclable materials agreement with the county.
