Woods Mill Road near Manchester Road
The Manchester Police set up radar on Rt 141 Woods Mill Rd), just south of Manchester Rd. East of Manchester Rd on 141 is a hill. So, police clock south bound drivers as they are near the bottom of the hill–when their speed is at it’s maximum. They also set up radar on the east side for east bound drivers. Again, you are clocked as you reach the bottom of a hill when your speed is at the maximim. The speed limit here is 45 MPH. I can’t believe that meets the 85 percentile "rule of thumb’. Police can regularly be found there …but particulaly during the last 3 or 4 days of any month as they are, obviously, trying to boost revenue and make their budget. Further, I suspect that over 90% of speeding tickets written within Manchester City limits are written in this stretch and that the revenue from speeding tickets has grown exponentially since this 141 overpass has been completed (around 1999).
