New Camera Sites

[M15ley]

I briefly heard the end of a news storey on TV this morning - something along the lines of 16 new speed camera sites about to spring up across the North East

Anyone have any more specific details/knowledge?

Full list, including locations, a total of 16 new cameras. Maybe being installed before reducing speed limits further! in some locations.

Thank you for this - very useful, many of those roads I use regularly, so thank you.

Drove up Barrack Road today after reading about this on here. Couldnt see any speed camera on barrack road, so its either very well hidden, or as per usual, they cant do anything right in this town!

Article suggests they're mobile camera van sites though, rather than static cameras

Yeah, I got that - which surely defeats the object of publishing the sites???

Not really - if you know you're approaching one of the sites but not whether there is a camera there or not, how are you going to drive ?

They have had mobile talivans at the Barrack Road site for many years now though, its nothing new.

ETA: All of the locations are (were?) published at www.safespeedforlife.co.uk
