There is a cop parked by the graveyard as you come around the Central Street bend near Windsor Ave. Although the cop isn't always there, the speed limit is quite low (30-35). I've been pulled over there once and will no longer drive in that part of acton. I instead drive on Route 27 where I've yet to see a speed trap.

Comment (11/2002): The actual location of the radar is in the graveyard on the hill with the radar pointing south on Central St.

Comment (12/2003): i agree they like it in there...there are lots of places cops just sit in acton....by acton medical down a litte road, by the eletric build by kelly's corner...they've been crackin down on greatroad i heard...peace

Comment (6/2004): As of mid 2004, this is still a popular spot for setting a trap. Other known locations are near the Verizon / McDonalds / K-Mart buildings at "Kelly Corner" (Rt 27 & 111 on the 27 South side); Route 111 near Central St. during the night hours, and Willow St. heading into Stow. Especially watch on Willow St. if you travel that way: there are at least 3 common trap spots: set back on a side street, a blind driveway at the start of a curve near the 150s, and somewhere between there and the Stow line.

The Massachusetts State Police patrol this. they have hit people's cars and the court is crocked as hell. What you expect for a state where Insureance is mandatory.
