Warnings issued through June; Citations begin July 1 for speeds 11+ mph over the limit
FORT COLLINS, Colo. – Fort Collins drivers, take note: new transportable speed photo radar units are now active throughout the city. While these units are currently issuing warnings to speeding drivers through June 30, beginning July 1, they will automatically issue citations to drivers traveling 11 miles per hour or more over the posted speed limit.
This enforcement effort is part of the City’s “Slow Down Fort Collins” initiative, focused on improving roadway safety and encouraging drivers to be more mindful behind the wheel.
Fort Collins Police Services reminds all motorists:
- Obey posted speed limits, stop signs, and traffic signals
- Allow for extra travel time in case of delays
- Avoid distractions such as mobile phones while driving
The mobile radar units are designed to be flexible and can be deployed to areas with higher instances of speeding or community concern. The City of Fort Collins emphasizes that driving is a shared responsibility, and slowing down protects everyone on the road.
