Also, an ordinance placing a 25 mile per hour on Lockport Street from Division Street east to Village limits near I-55. The reason for this is due to the condition of the bike trail, many bike riders ride out to Eour Seasons Park on the street. .There are two (2) entrances to the park east of I-55 (overpass) and the cars come over that hill about 55 m.p.h, and it is crucial the traffic slow down in these areas. W.
