Some interesting stats from the La Cygne police department

 

Over the past few weeks, the City’s newly acquired radar signs have been collecting vehicle speed and traffic count data along 4th Street.

During this period, 2,470 vehicles were recorded, with a daily average of 205 vehicles. Encouragingly, less than 4% of vehicles exceeded 35 mph, and the highest speed recorded was 43 mph, which occurred only once.

Please note: The data below reflects averages of speed and vehicles at specific time frames, southbound traffic only. The northbound radar sign experienced interference from passing trains and an unidentified object, which impacted data accuracy. We will relocate the sign and collect new northbound data during the next monitoring period on 4th Street.

Overall, this data shows that the vast majority of drivers are traveling within safe and lawful speeds. Thank you to everyone who continues to help keep our community safe by driving responsibly.
