Cold Spring, New York Speed Traps

30 MPH sign is outside of town, on Rte 9D where Speed Limit 40 MPH); 30 MPH applies inside town after Y turn-off to Fair Street. There are 14 signs (restaurants, etc.) on the Left and 2 more signs at right. Cop sits in bushes right side of Fair Street w/radar. Also speed traps on Rte 9D–main N-S road in Hudson Valley. Best advice, avoid Cold Spring–do not shop there, do not eat there, do not buy gas there, do not stay in its inns or attend its churches or fairs–the Mayor and shopkeeprs are aware of town’s reputation–less business will bring more pressure to spend town time and money getting better signage.

One of only 3 main roads that goes north and south along the Hudson River in Putnam County, NY. They hold traffic court on Monday nights. A full house every Monday, over 100 people.
