4 Locations here, one is at the beer store near the corner, across the street on Legion coming out of the O.P.P station, the other is about 100 feet east of the intersection, in the parking lot (an old Ministry bldg I beleive), or across the street from there in the Columbia Chrome lot at the west end of the lot.
In Porcupine on Hwy 101 (King) just past the bridge
There is often a cruiser parked on Bellemare St. just past the bridge on the way into Porcupine which catches motorists who don’t slow from 80 to 50 at the bridge.
This location cannot be seen until part-way around the bend & it is too late to reduce speed.
