Public questions

  • Mr White – Whitley – Speeding motorists
    Our community is plagued with speeding motorists.
    The only enforcement we have is the occasional visits from the Camera Safety Van.
    At most 1 or maybe 2 hours a month, some months we have no visits.
    We have been fed suggestions that Fixed Speed Cameras will be deployed in the county.
    What progress is there with this?
    When will the first Fixed Speed Cameras be deployed.
    Please can my village be included in any pilot initiatives.
    If none have yet been deployed, what is preventing them being used?
    Thank you.
