Community Speedwatch

Here’s something we received this week, and which we’d encourage residents to take up if interested. We have a speed gun that can be used once anyone’s been trained, and we’d be delighted to hear from you if you want to participate in a speed control initiative once you’ve attended this session.
We would like to invite you to a session to learn more about Community Speed Watch: GoSafe | Community SpeedWatch and how you could get involved. The session will be held online via Zoom on Wednesday 8th of February 2024 at 7pm. The presentation will be in English, with a Welsh translator present for anyone wishing to make contributions in Welsh.
Community Speed Watch is a national initiative where, in partnership with the Police, members of communities use detection devices to monitor local vehicle speeds. The volunteers report drivers exceeding the speed limit to the police with the aim of educating drivers to slow down.
Could you please register your interest by responding to kaarina.ruta@wlga.gov.uk by the 31st of January 2024 and you will then be sent the instructions to join.
