Corner of Mineral Spring and Lonsdale near Samuel Slater School
During the school year the school zones in Pawtucket are active until 6PM. I know of no other city in RI with this limit. Driving the posted (during non-school zone hours) speed limit will cause the automated speed trap cameras to activate granting you a $50 ticket. There’s only a small school zone light on the opposite end of the Traffic light on Lonsdale and Mineral Spring, barely visible from the traffic light, and invisible if you decide to stop for gas and the nearby Speedway. None of the speed trap cameras are illuminated or otherwise informing drivers they’re in an active school zone, making non-Pawtucket residents very susceptible to speeding tickets.
