I believe, but, can't vouch for sure...that major through roads like Canal, Bailey, O'Dell, St Charles, Belvedere, etc will remain 30mph.

The main purpose of this change is to make neighborhood streets a consistent 20mph. From Bridgeport/LS south, neighborhood streets are an unreasonable 15 mph; North of BLS they are 25 which is probably too fast. This inconsistency between neighborhoods is what needs to be fixed. Villas are and will remain 10.
