Every police mobile speed camera location across Leeds this week
Mobile speed cameras have been set up across Leeds in a bid to reduce accidents.
Set up by West Yorkshire Police[1] on behalf of the West Yorkshire Casualty Prevention Partnership, the cameras are set up in “known casualty zones” to try to keep speeds down on dangerous roads.[2] The equipment uses a laser which operates in all weather conditions to determine speeds.
The vehicles themselves are not covert and can be seen from the road. According to the West Yorkshire[3] Casualty Prevention Partnership, enforcement can be expected on any of these roads at any time seven days a week.
Here are all the roads which have mobile speed cameras in Leeds. These locations are accurate at the time of publication but are subject to alteration without further notice.
