Ogden Ave EAST of I-294 all the way to Willow Springs Rd

Western Springs, IllinoisSep 01, 20001 Comments

This section of Ogden Ave is just opposite of the one mentioned for Hinsdale. Motorists come off the express way at a high rate of speed or when crossing the bridge from Hinsdale pick up to 50-55mph. Posted limit is 35mph. Western Springs Police sit on the right side (south) of Ogden on the side street where homes obstruct your view of them until they have you. They also sit just past Wolf rd on the north side backed up into the trees of the forest preserve. The last location is in an unmarked car in Mike & Henrys auto repair garage parking lot after they close. The speed limit there comes down to 30mph so they get a lot of motorists at 40-45. western Springs WILL stop for 5 mph over the limit, especially at night, and if you have tinted glass.

Comments:
Coming off I-294 on the Ogden off ram going east into Western Springs. The off ramp is down hill and very short before you are on Ogden. Speed limit drops immediately. It goes against all instincts to immediately slow on this down hill off ramp. Known speed trap here for over 20 years.
