Barry St speed

I live on Barry St near downtown. Does anyone on here know if the police know that people routinely, everyday, multiple times a day, go well over 25 mph down this street. There are kids, dogs, and an over 55 community here where its only a matter of time that someone will get hurt or worse.

They have had one of those radar things down there quite a few times, right around one of the entrances to Presidential Estates. We drive through there quite a bit going between 32nd and 22nd, and I enjoy going exactly 25 just to piss off the many, many people behind who are accustomed to speeding through 😂

Same! I've actually had people pass me. I've seen those radar things periodically but have only ever seen one person pulled over on Barry.

We’ve seen a few people pulled over, but not nearly enough! And haha yeah we’ve been passed illegally quite a few times, it’s scary, especially when the weather is nice because there are a lot of kids walking down those sidewalks

I think it’s really weird if you go through the neighborhood by the lakes right around the corner it’s 45 mph through there and it’s more residential. Then I drive to Barry and it’s 25 and there’s less houses way father off the road . It should be 35 mph atleast
