Description
The reduced speed school zone along Old Highway 431 for Hampton Cove Elementary and Middle Schools during activated morning period is frequently ignored and violated by drivers. Many westbound drivers slow from 55 to 45 mph from the flashing yellow lights when activated, but once past Audobon Lane intersection, roughly only 1/3 of the speed zone's length, reaccelerate. Additional signage reminding drivers it is still a school zone west of Audobon Lane may be helpful. Rigorous enforcement by Huntsville Police Department would be more helpful to ensure the intended safe speed of 35 mph is adhered to during zone activation periods.
