Southwest Trafficway Street near 36th Street
There are speed traps along Southwest Trafficway between 31st and 36th nearly every week, often times more than once in a week. Southbound traffic gets hit in front of FOX4 News just north of the 31st street intersection and again at 36th street. Northbound traffic gets hit at 34th street as the police sit behind a small church.
The speed limit for this 6 lane road (3 lanes in each direction)is only 35mph, which is lower than the normal flow of traffic. Also, the southbound traffic exits interstate 35 before 31st street where the speed limit drops from 55mph to 45mph for a couple blocks before it then drops again to 35mph.
Police frequently have vehicles pulled over in this area as the 20mph drop in speed limit is an unexpected change for drivers.
