Speeding

Complaints of speeding in residential neighborhoods can be addressed on a limited basis by directed traffic patrols of police in problem areas, the use of speed trailers, and some traffic control features. Installation of new speed humps or speed tables is prohibited by the Neighborhood Traffic Control Policy established by the Board of Commissioners on January 5, 2010.

Anyone wishing to change traffic control conditions on a city street should complete a "Request to Change Traffic Conditions" Form, which is available on the City’s website at http://www.bgky.org/ or can be obtained from City Central or the Neighborhood Action Office.  This form requires signatures from neighborhood representatives and a complete description of the nature of the problem to be reported.

Requests for speed trailer deployment or directed traffic patrols by the Police Department should be directed to City Central or directly to the the Bowling Green Police Department.
