Lakewood Village Speeding Issue Update 10/9/24
Focused Patrol
We asked the White Lake Township Police to strictly enforce the speed limit in Lakewood Village. They have just completed a two-week Focused Patrol where they deployed the radar trailer four times and had police cars with radar enforcement deployed five times between 9/16/24 through 9/28/24. Officers were deployed for approximately 30 minutes at random times from noon until 4 pm. Here is a summary of the results:
· In August we reported that the speeding issue was significant on Biscayne (primarily on the straight section near Sunset), whereas Ellinwood was at a high level of speed compliance.
o Biscayne: approximately 30% of the cars were speeding with approximately 4% of the vehicles going dangerously fast, meaning they were faster than 30 MPH.
o Ellinwood: approximately 10% of the cars were speeding, the vast majority were low risk, meaning they were less than 30 MPH.
· The results of the Focused Patrol are as follows: (see tables below)
o Biscayne: approximately 23% speeding, 2% going dangerously fast
§ One citation was written for a 37 in a 25 zone
o Ellinwood: approximately 6% speeding, again less than 30 MPH.
· This is a move in the right direction, but still too many dangerously fast on Biscayne.
o 7% improvement of cars speeding
o 2% improvement of vehicles going dangerously fast
o However, there were a few more cars above 35 MPH!
· Next steps:
o Do another Focused Patrol to see if we can get a higher percentage of compliance.
§ Radar trailer results will be used to judge the progress
§ Ask for stricter enforcement
§ Our goal would be to get Biscayne to 90% compliance, like Ellinwood
· Bottom line: There was improvement!! We will continue our efforts with WLTPD.
Update on the Radar Sign
At the Annual Meeting we discussed the possibility of deploying a radar sign (AKA a “Your
Speed” sign). White Lake Township has a sign-on loan from the Transportation Improvement Association (https://tiasafety.us ) that they would let us use temporarily. The Road Commission for Oakland County has requirements for the type and mounting of those signs. After investigating the cost and effort to utilize one of those signs, we have tabled the issue for now and will rely on the radar trailer and Focused Patrol efforts of the WLTPD.
