When setting a specific speed limit for a road section, which set of factors should be considered?

Correct answer

Road characteristics and layout and traffic conditions.

Road characteristics and layout and traffic conditions. Article 47 links specific limits to road characteristics and allows temporary limits when traffic conditions warrant them. Design speed informs geometric design but does not alone equal the speed limit that can be maintained in every circumstance. Congestion is not the sole criterion either.
