Heading South On RI 114 toward the Newport Grand and Newport Bridge, you actually transition from Middletown to Newport at the bottom of the hill. Speed limit changes to 25 MPH. It's nearly impossible to go that slow. FYI - within the city of Newport, the Maximum speed limit is 25 MPH or less Everywhere. The cops hide in a driveway to the city materials yard on the left at the bottom of the hill on the drivers left. wffw@weaselsspfld.com (Johnny T) http://www.speedtrap.org/speed-traps/view/66641 http://www.speedtrap.org/speed-traps/view/66641#Middletown,RI 41.4997 -71.2675 Middletown, RI - Paradise Avenue runs between Green End Avenue and the road along Second Beach.

If you are going north it's right after the big LNG Tank depot. They sit there because it is right on the line between North Kingstown and Exeter.

But this is the larger of the operations on the road. I'm not sure as to when they do it, but eventually during the year (about 3 times) they'll have an officer Stand there with a radar gun, and an ATV with an officer pulls out in front of you down the road. It's some kind of operation, I don't know what it's called. But it's a Pain. This is besides your normal cruiser sitting there, which they frequently do. Either side-by-side or solo.
