Mobile speed cameras deployed across West Yorkshire this week

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 12 Oct, 05:18 · Archive

Mobile speed cameras are being deployed across West Yorkshire at 99 locations this week to reduce road accidents.

Mobile speed cameras are being deployed across West Yorkshire this week at 99 locations operated by the West Yorkshire Police Camera Enforcement Unit on behalf of the West Yorkshire Safety Camera Partnership. The cameras are positioned at both core camera sites and community concern sites. Core camera sites are areas with high accident rates, while community concern sites have been highlighted by local people or authorities as needing enforcement.

The cameras function by shining a laser on passing vehicles to determine their speed. This laser technology works in a variety of light and weather conditions. Locations across the region include sites on major roads in Bradford, Leeds, Keighley and Brighouse, with cameras deployed at 30mph, 40mph and 50mph speed limit areas. The deployment is part of ongoing efforts to reduce the number of road accidents across the region.
