Industrial Park Rd Road near Jackson Street
Police sit on either side of the over-the-railroad bridge waiting for the vehicles to descend, knowing that it is very hard to maintain 30mph. My vehicle will accelerate from 30mph to 38mph with the cruise set at 30mph,so, if you are doing 35mph when at the crest of the bridge, you will certainly be going 40mph or more and WILL contribute to the city’s "fund-drive"
