State Highway 92 Eastbound near 20th Street
Eastbound 92 hwy coming down hill heading into the city of Leavenworth. As you enter the city limits you go from a state hwy with mixed speeds to a 30 mph as soon as you cross the city limit sign which is located near bottom of the hill with no speed reduction posting. Patrol sets up in the entrance of the county extension office shooting west to intercept traffic which is oblivious to the sudden change of speeds. Additional complexities…drivers are coming off hill in coast, watching for traffic, as there are multiple drives at the bottom of the hill and therefore in defensive mode. Years ago this area had a speed reduction zone; the added confusion doesn’t help.
