Five Fishers Police Department officers conducted a targeted traffic enforcement effort along 116th Street on Thursday morning, resulting in 39 traffic stops over a four-hour period.

The traffic blitz took place between Olio Road and Cumberland Road from 8 a.m. to noon. According to the department, the highest speed recorded during the operation was 27 mph over the posted limit.

Police said several stops led to positive conversations with drivers about road safety, and officers noted that many motorists were already following the speed limit.

“Every stop is an opportunity to prevent crashes and protect our community,” the department said in its update.

Fishers Police thanked drivers who slowed down and set “an excellent example for safe driving,” reminding residents that reduced speeds help create safer streets throughout the city.
