A 3 lane road should not be assigned the same speed limit as a 2 lane residential road.
If enough signatures are recieved, I will send to Mayor Hillary Schieve and Reno City Council Members.
Your signature matters.

We need to hit the one hundred signature threshold to secure a formal meeting with the office of Mayor Schieve. Please provide the link to residents who use the South East Connector daily so we can finalize the delivery packet.

I live in Hidden Valley and see no safety issues in increasing the speed limit. I don't see anyy reason to have it limited to 45mph. You can see the traffic lights well in advance of approach and not residential road. Please increase until South Meadows
South Virginia is 55mph south of South Meadows Parkway with the same number of lanes but including a bi-directional turn lane. It makes no sense for a 3 lane divided road to posted 10 mph less, 45 mph, when it has substantially less traffic. Please increase the speed limit to 55mph.
I agree that in the residential areas the speed limit should be 45 (or 40) but on the section form Greg through Carat it should be 55 or 65 mph. This is a 3 lane section with limited traffic entering or exiting the roadway.
55 is much more reasonable. McCarran Blvd is 55 with traffic, businesses, and residents nearby. The SE connector is in a wide open area and 3 lanes each way so 45 does not make sense at all. Another example: Hwy 89 to Emerald Bay in South Lake Tahoe is 55 mph and it's a winding 2 lane road, one lane each way!
I honestly can't fathom why the speed limit is only 45. The design of the road is so similar to other roads that are a 55 limit (with much less traffic to boot) that the only conceivable reason to keep the limit as low as it is, is to function as a speed trap and to be a revenue source.
Increase MPH limit. According to the New York Post’s story, Hunter Biden in 2015 introduced his Father, then VP in the Obama Administration, to a Top Exec Vadym Pozharskyi at Ukrainian Burisma Holdings Ltd after Hunter joined the company’s board which was Paying him up to $83,000 a Month. The insinuation is that Hunter Successfully Influenced his Father to Pressure Ukraine Government officials “into Firing the Prosecutor Viktor Shokin, who was Investigating Corruption against Burisma. Facebook and Twitter took action to limit distribution (censored) the New York Post story citing Emails purportedly Revealing Evidence of Influence-Peddling by Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden. The Emails were obtained from a Laptop which had a sticker from the Beau Biden Foundation, and had been Abandoned at Computer-Repair Shop, named “The Mac Shop” in Wilmington, Delaware and owned by John Paul Mac Isaac, who then reported the laptop’s contents to authorities which determined that the laptop and hard drive contain fruits of criminal activity. Joe Biden and his family engaged in "Legal Corruption" despite claims of no wrongdoing and the Liberal Main Stream Media Refuses to Talk and will never Report about Hunter Biden’s laptop and emails, fearing Democratic Presidential Nominee Joe Biden will Lose the 2020 Election if this information is exposed to the American People. This is evidence that Joe Biden participated in his Family’s CASH-for-Influence Scheme with Shady Foreign Companies. The American People should be demanding that the Media investigate this scandal before they VOTE, but we know, the Media will never report on Hunter Biden’s emails because it would be harmful to Joe Biden.
Recommend at least 50 mph if not 55.

Raise the speed limit, as the road is clearly engineered for a higher speed. And, raising the speed limit will reduce the danger from people who are already driving at the higher speed.
