Speed Bumps on Wilson Mill Road Gone, Radar & Citations to Take It’s Place
February 11th, 2013 by Joe Burgess
Drew County road workers removed the speed bump on Wilson Mill Road (near Maxwell Hardwood Flooring) Friday morning.
Drew County Judge Robert Akin told MLive, that drivers should expect law enforcement officers to take their place, to maintain safe speeds near the plant entrances, and that tickets will be written to speeding vehicles.

Finally!
Does Drew County have sufficient officers to control speeders 24/7?
Speed bumps at least will slow speeders down all the time, is watching
for speeders on this road more important than other responsibilities of the DCSO?
Does whining about everything solve the problem ? Several of us are tired of parts falling off our cars when we slow down and bounce over the speed bumps in front of the mill.
Thank you Judge for taking them off the road.
Who’s idea was is to put them there in the first place? Thank you Judge Akin for removing them. I was just getting ready too send someone a bill!!
THANK YOU Judge Akin I go over those things about 75 times a month. Darrell
Thank you Judge Akins I am glad they took them up it puts a wear and tear on your ride I already had to replace a shock on my van and I think they need to to patrol 425 south in the afternoon I was headed to town and those teenagers passed me like I was sitting still knowing those buses go down threw their someone is going to get hurt from someone not watching what they are doing is going to get hurt I also think they need to put a red light down by both schools drew central and monticello schools it would be better getting out because ppls be pulling out in front of you and everything else! I think the traffic would be alot better their has been alot of wreaks going on ppls running the red light and hitting other ppls and ppls running out in front of ppls
Thank you for that last sentence, Crystal!
Thanks Judge Akin,
Im glad they are gone. I always wondered why we dont need speed
bumps near our schools and other places children frequent, but a mill qualifies?
While they are watching willson mill road, ya may wanna have dot watching midway route, some log trucks come down midway so fast they shake the windows in my house, an they dont seem to care if a kid is waiting on a bus in a drive beside the road or not. Not all of them fly but there are some. An with they will definatly go midway route more knowing that willson mill will be being watched.
You people complain about a couple of speed bumps, I have drove over them ,there not bad , if you slow down. Hope no one gets hurt .but if someone does, at least everyone else’s cars will be in good shape. Total waste of taxpayers money!!!
