Buena Vista may be a "four lane divided highway". It has four lanes and divided and I suppose, technically, it is a highway. However, in its approximately 10 miles of meandering it has 14 roundabouts and 10 other intersections. There are some "line of sight" problems as well. I am not a traffic engineer but I certainly hope the speed limit remains at 35MPH. There are far too many people driving 45MPH on it now. If the limit were 45MPH then there would be those who would drive 55MPH.

There may be some sections where it is safe to exceed 35MPH but it seems impractical to have numerous and varying speed limits.
