Current priorities
Speeding Vehicles
1. Community Engagement & Education Speak to drivers and residents about concerns over speeding. Attend community meetings and listen to local complaints. Provide road safety advice in schools, workplaces, and community centres. 2. Visibility & Deterrence Patrol speeding hotspots on foot or vehicle to provide a visible presence. Stand at key locations (especially near schools) to act as a deterrent to drivers. 3. Speed Monitoring (Non-Enforcement) Work with Community Speed Watch schemes, where trained volunteers use speed detection equipment to monitor drivers and report offenders. Record and pass information about persistent issues or repeat offenders to police officers, who can take enforcement action.
