A LIST of dozens of roads where speed checks will be conducted over the coming weeks has been released.
The Lancashire Road Safety Partnership revealed the locations in a bid to raise awareness of the work they are doing on roads across the county.
One aim of the partnership is to ‘improve driver behaviour by helping motorists drive at an appropriate and safe speed’ within designated limits.
A statement on their website reads: “We operate our safety camera enforcement vehicles across Lancashire seven days a week.
“Our cameras use highly accurate laser technology to detect speeding motorists but they are also used to identify other offences, including drivers not in proper control or not wearing a seat belt.
“All our mobile sites are risk assessed for safety and we vary how often we attend different locations with sites based on casualty data, known speeding concerns, where a report has been made directly by a member of the public concerned about speeding issues in their area along with any location that has a fixed roadside camera.”
To raise awareness of the mobile sites this list of locations has been released:
