Amarillo’s State Loop 335: New Speed Limit Changes Coming Soon

One of the best benefits of taking the loop around Amarillo, Texas is that you can get around the city much faster than going through it. You won't find all the stoplights. There's not as much traffic. The speed limit is also higher. Those speed limits are about to change, though.

Slow It Down When You're On The Southeast Part Of The Loop In Amarillo, Texas

I love taking the loop because of the speed limit. Especially when I need to get from one end of town to the other and I don't feel like taking 40, or dealing with a lot of stoplights and stop signs.

The speed limit change taking place to the southeast portion of the loop is reducing the speed limit. It's going down to 65 miles per hour.

Still quicker than sitting at half the stoplights in town.

Slow Down, Pay Attention, Drive Safe This Week And Weekend

The weather is supposed to be brutally cold heading into this weekend. Slowing down a little bit isn't a bad idea.

Keep an eye on weather forecasts, make sure your vehicle is prepped for winter weather, and drive safe. Also, don't forget to slow down on the southeast side of the loop.
