Des Peres Road near Between Dougherty Ferry and Manchester
Rolling hills and places where the pavement widens from 2 to 3 lanes provide hiding places for Des Peres finest to hide and catch motorists going either north or southbound on this stretch of Des Peres Road. I’ve observed them running radar from both cars and with a motorcycle in this stretch of road.
Manchester Road near Pointe Drive
The police will hide behind a large sound retaining wall, just before you get to Pointe Drive off of westbound Manchester Rd. (less than 1/4 mile east of Barrett Station Rd.)
Dougherty Ferry Road near Interstate 270
Dougherty Ferry west of I-270 always patrolled by Des Peres Police, especially between interstate and Barret Station Rd. St Louis County patrols between Barret Station and Big Bend Rd. Usually cars are marked and on shoulder in either direction although they sometimes use side streets of nearby subdivisions. Also, traffic lights in area short cycle so police may be near lights monitoring intersections. Speed limits may not always be strictly enforced but red light enforcement is strict.
