Hendersonville Police Department announced Wednesday, April 5 patrol officers will be conducting increased speed enforcement patrols around the city.
The heightened effort is part of the NCDOT's and Hendersonville Police Department's ongoing "Speed a Little, Lose a Lot" campaign, which will run through April 9.
HPD said a greater focus on speeding will be concentrated in the areas of Asheville Highway and Church Street.
The increased patrol comes in response to a high number of crashes that happened the month of March.
"We kindly remind everyone to obey posted speed limits and drive responsibly. Together, let's make our roads safer for everyone," a statement from Hendersonville Police Department said.
