Average speed cameras will be deployed at entry and exit points to residential areas as an alternative to road humps and chicanes, according to a report last week in The Times.
The report says the Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo) has approved a new generation of cameras that are linked wirelessly and operate in clusters, meaning that speeding drivers will be caught whichever route they take across a wide area.
Acpo’s roads policing enforcement technology committee has approved the cameras after a four-year assessment of their accuracy, which included trials in Belfast and Camden, London.
