Melanie and myself both helped with the community speed watch event in St Bartholomew's Road following many complaints of speeding. Here are the results:

Session: 2:30pm – 4:00pm
-- 134 cars were recorded, at an average speed of 22.3mph
-- 6 have had letters issued as they were travelling at 32mph or more
-- Maximum speed registered was 36mph (one car)

Session: 7pm – 8:15pm
-- 89 cars were recorded, at an average speed of 21.3 mph
-- 5 have had letters issued as they were travelling at 32mph or more
-- Maximum speed registered was 35mph (one car)


In addition:
-- 2 cannabis cautions were administered to a vehicle travelling under 30mph
-- 1 expired tax disc was seized from a car recorded at 32mph

‘Thank you’ to all volunteers that took part in the Community Speedwatch.
