Detour off Hwy 169 through town. As you exit
Hwy 169 under construction between Chanute KS and Humbolt,KS. Southbound 169 traffic is detoured into Iola, and speed drops to 35 and then immediately to 25. Travelers unfamiliar with the streets and avoiding the traffic from being detoured will be stopped for going too fast, which is easy to do because of the detour. Cops are sitting each side of town to nail unsuspecting drivers who can’t see the off street speed limit signs. The streets have some curves into the town that make it difficult if not impossible to see the signs. Iola is making some money from the fines of out of state drivers.
