West Valley City, Utah Speed Traps
2700 West Street near 3100 South Crossing
On 2700 West just south of the 3100 South intersection. They generally only stop northbound traffic, but occasionally chase southbound traffic when no northbound is coming. It’s always two motorcycle cops, sometimes both have radar guns, but usually only one of them does. The speed limit changes from 40 MPH to 35 MPH just north the 3500 South intersection.

Parkway Boulevard near Franklin Covey
Between 2700 West and Decker Lake Drive by the Franklin Covey bldg. As you go over the I-215 overpass, there are often unmarked police cars waiting just over the crest of the hill to clock you as you go over the top. Very frequent.

Lake Park Boulevard near GE Healthcare Building
As you are travelling southwest on Lake Park Blvd after the T intersection, you will come to a slight bend in the road. As you are rounding this bend, make sure you are not going over 35 mph, because the officer will see you well before you can see him. Two or three motorcycle officers armed with lidar await in the left-turn lane opposite the GE Healthcare/Intermountain Healthcare building.
