Bon Air Elementary area, McRae Road. 1 block west of Buford

Richmond, VirginiaMar 12, 20161 Comments

Speed trap began IN FORCE since beginning of March, 2016. Has been no previous radar set up in over 2 years. Radar is set up on McRae from 8:10 to 825 AM , one to two days/week. McRae leads to Polk St., which brings traffic around to front door of Bon AIr Elem., where there is a 15 min. window for arriving students . ALL bused students enter at the back door. There is no pedestrian traffic on this part of McRae, it is bordered by woods and ditches. When turning off of Old Bon Air Rd. onto McRae, the speed limit drops to 25 mph. There is immediately a large downhill followed by a large uphill, radar is set up to your right at top of hill, maybe 30 yds. from crest. Police use a church parking lot entrance alcove to wait for you. Police are waiting for those at 35 mph, which would normally be a very safe speed (NO PEDESTRIANS HERE !) excepting for the school zone classification. Be sure to tap your brakes before topping the hill to get under the 25 Mph limit.

I am pretty sure that is in Chesterfield County - not the City Of Richmond.
