Mobile speed cameras in our area

Friday, 13 November 2020 10:36

Mobile speed cameras could be operating in Glossop and the rest of High Peak for the next few weeks.

Derbyshire Crest has just published a list of potential sites county-wide.

Those earmarked for our area where the vans could be set up are at: Glossop Road, Gamesley; Long Lane, Charlesworth; the A57 Snake Pass, Ladybower stretch;  the A57 at Dinting Vale; the A623, Peak Forest; and A6, Dove Holes.

The cameras will operate at speed black spots and areas where traffic is a concern to the local community.

Derbyshire Crest (Casualty Reduction Enforcement Support Team) is not just looking for speeders.

The cameras also want to catch drivers using a mobile phone at the wheel and anyone in the vehicle not wearing a seat belt.
