CONWAY — Drivers seem to be slowing down when they see the Conway Police Department’s new radar speed trailer, the police chief said Monday, citing data collected so far.

Residents April 13 voted by an overwhelming majority (940-548) to support Article 18 to spend up to $8,500 for the purchase of a radar speed trailer. Half of the $8,300 cost was covered by a grant.
