Mobile Speed Feedback Program

NOTE: If you are concerned with speeding in your area, contact the Spokane Police Department's Traffic Unit Hotline (509.625.4150). If there is property or vehicle damage, contact Spokane County's Crime Check (509.456.2233).

2026 Mobile Speed Feedback Applications are now open! Due date for applications is Monday, April 13.

The City of Spokane has 10 mobile speed feedback trailers that are placed for a two-week time period at the request of Neighborhood Councils. The signs show drivers how quickly they are moving. These signs were purchased through funding designated through the Traffic Calming Program.

2026 Application

Each February, the Office of Neighborhood Services (ONS) will open applications to Neighborhood Councils. Applications are due early April. Please work through your Neighborhood Council to request a trailer be placed in an area of concern. Not sure which neighborhood you live in? Visit the Neighborhood Councils page.

2026 Changes

Tips to keep in mind while deciding a location or date for trailer placement:

  • DO place signs in the public right of way where there is adequate space for the trailer to fit–roughly the size of a small passenger vehicle.
  • DO choose a location to maximize effectiveness.
  • DO select most effective dates for sign placement. ie. placing a trailer near a school in July or August will not be as effective as May, June or Sept.
  • Please identify which direction you wish the sign to face. Our signs only impact one direction of traffic. If a direction is not chosen, the placement crew will decide which direction the sign will face.
  • DO NOT place signs near controlled intersections or directly after a curve where traffic is accelerating or slowing down due to an adjacent intersection or curve in the road.
  • DO NOT request trailers be placed on sidewalks or private property without permission of the property owner.

Note: ONS will try to accommodate trailers on an as-needed basis. Please work with your Neighborhood Council chair to make that request to ONS at neigh.svcs@spokanecity.org.

ONS may need to shorten or cancel use of a trailer in a neighborhood if a trailer is vandalized.
