Police radar on Yellowhead Trail construction area

For months, people following the reduced speed in the construction areas of Yellowhead have gotten used to being tailgated, cut off, zoomed past by many drivers going down Yellowhead trail in the construction area with no police presence to be seen.

FINALLY I see yesterday police set themselves up to catch speeders going eastbound, about six cars already pulled over as I went past and more being pulled over as I looked back. I’m sure also a nice reminder for these folks that speeding in a construction zone is double the fine.

So for those that actually have been following the reduced speed limit in the area, know that it’s not in vain and you saved yourself a pretty penny.
