Windsor Residents supports Speed Cameras Operations

After following the public consultation on road safety in

the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, the cabinet members held a meeting

tonight to discuss speed camera operations. Council officers have recommended having

twenty-six fixed camera sites across the Royal Borough and further police

enforcement by having twenty approved mobile locations where police can use

hand-held kit to capture fast drivers. This comes into light after reports

showed nearly £1.8 million fines and fees and speeding awareness course

attendance being paid by motorists in the Borough between 2006 and 2010.

It has been reported that road safety has been a concern for

majority of the residents living in the Borough, who would support this

proposal of speed cameras in their areas.
