Coral Springs police remind drivers to reduce speeds and remain cautious in active construction zones throughout the city

Coral Springs, Florida – The Coral Springs Police Department is once again reminding drivers to slow down and obey speed limits, especially in work zones. Recently, the department used social media to grab the attention of local motorists by sharing a video showing officers pulling over speeding drivers along Atlantic Boulevard, a stretch of road that is currently undergoing construction.

The video highlights the ongoing construction project between Riverside Drive and the Sawgrass Expressway, where the posted speed limit has been reduced to 30 miles per hour. With several work zones in the area, Coral Springs police are making it clear that these zones are not only marked with cones and signage but are actively monitored. Officers are on the lookout for speeding drivers, and those caught breaking the law will face double fines, a penalty designed to encourage safer driving in these high-risk areas.

“Whether or not construction workers are actively on-site, the speed limit remains in place,” said a statement from the department. “It’s important for drivers to respect these limits, as speeding in work zones puts both workers and motorists at risk.”

In addition to Atlantic Boulevard, several other street and sidewalk improvement projects are ongoing throughout Coral Springs, including work on University Drive. The city is committed to improving infrastructure, but it also expects drivers to exercise caution and follow the reduced speed limits in these construction areas.
