1. I am concerned about speeding vehicles on my street, what can be done about it?

All too often when driving, motorists don't check vehicle speed. Oftentimes we assume we are operating within the limit, when in fact we are not. This stems from habit or inattention.

The Kenilworth Police Department has also purchased a portable speed monitoring display. This speed display can be placed in areas in which using the full-size speed trailer is difficult or not possible due to traffic concerns or the roadway configuration.

Residents with speed concerns are invited to contact the police department and speak with a supervisor to discuss a speed monitor request. The Kenilworth Police Department makes every effort to address safety concerns and will work with citizens in developing a solution.
