We have a different change hitting Boston as of this last week -- the<br class="">

statutory limit on *UNSIGNED* roads/streets in Boston has changed.<br class="">

<br class="">

Statutory limit had been the state's 30mph (thickly settled or<br class="">

business district).<br class="">

<br class="">

One might presume since this changes only unsigned speed, we haven't<br class="">

entered it, so nothing to change.<br class="">

But how is a router to know ?<br class="">
