Mesa, Arizona Speed Traps
Thomas Rd East of Loop 202
Frequently several motor officers behind unmarked SUV on shoulder, directed by one officer w/radar gun.
Speed limit set at forty. Road has two lanes each way and is safe at speeds up to and over state limit of 65.
Have seen photo radar vans there at least three times in the last few months.
Higley Rd south of McDowell
Have noticed more frequency there since the 202 opend to Higley.
Val Vista between Brown and Southern
There are police on this road ALL the time. I’ve seen more than one van parked on the side in both directions. All the old people usually keep speeds down to the limit, but there’s a lot of people who do go faster.
Broadway Rd. Between Higley & Mesa Dr
A marked police van with radar and laser sitting on the sidewalk/rocky area adjacent to people’s residences. They are usually spaced nicely between electicity poles during morning and afternoon rush hour traffic.
