Speed
Monitor Trailer
Speed
related motor vehicle complaints are one of the most frequent types of
complaints the Police Department receives. To combat these complaints
the Greenland Police Department conducts saturation patrols funded by
grants to put extra officers out in the field, dedicated to motor
vehicle violation enforcement. Unfortunately the grant only supplies
funding for a very limited number of hours. In order to address this
issue from another avenue we looked at purchasing a Speed Monitor
Trailer.
At
the March 2007 Town Meeting the Residents of Greenland approved a
warrant article to purchase a Speed Monitor Trailer. The cost for the
trailer was $8000.00, half of which was obtained through a New Hampshire Highway
Safety Grant. The trailer was ordered and has just been
delivered. We look forward to using this new equipment to address
citizen complaints for speeding vehicles, in a way that will provide an
economical solution.
If you would like the Speed
Monitor Trailer set up in your area, please fill out the Speed
Trailer Request Form and return it to the department.
