Cranberry Twp. unveils anti-speeding campaign
CRANBERRY TWP — Speeders be warned, the township is launching its annual Slow Down Campaign on Monday.
In the 19 participating neighborhoods, drivers will see yard signs and radar speed signs, and police will step up patrols to catch speedy drivers, said Duane McKee, assistant township manager.
The goal is to get drivers to slow down, remind them that the speed limit in residential areas is 25 mph and get them to think more about their driving habits. The campaign runs through June 10.
“We're not out there to ticket people,” McKee said. “We're out there to raise awareness.”
McKee said the township distributed 300 yard signs to participating neighborhoods this year. The yard signs have attention-catching slogans like “Drive like your kids live here” and “25 saves lives.”
