Grafton, West Virginia Speed Traps
Barrett Street by Jerry’s Lounge
Changes from 35 to 25 at curve on a downhill above Jerrys lounge. Also on uphill side change to 35 mph from 25 mph. Have recently been ticketing heavily going either direction.
Rt 119 South of Grafton
If you are headed into Grafton on Rt 119 North…
The speed limit drops from 55, to 40, to 25 in about a quarter mile stretch. If you are doing the 55 spped, you almost have to slam on your breaks to get down the the 25 zone!
Also 119 through the Webster area is posted at 35mph. Heavily patrolled & they will pull you for going as little as 40mph!
RiteAid or Walgreen’s parking lot.
When traveling south on Rt 119 from the Walmart stop light the speed limit is 45 mph then it changes to 25 mph before you get to NAPA and McDonalds. Many people do not get slowed down enough before they have been clocked at 30 or 35 mph.
Hospital hill
When going down the hill towards southern states and go-mart the city and county police department’s will sit in the animal hospital parking lot and clock you at the bottom of the hill where the speed limits changes. can’t see them until it’s too late.
almost all srteets in grafton have quick reduction signs
many many streets have quick reduction speed signs,meaning that on the hills it is hard to maintain the proper speed
