Speed cameras in Powys in October 2023 – see the full list
Speeding is one of the largest contributing factors to collisions on Welsh roads according to GoSafe - a partnership made up of authorities including the Welsh Government and Wales emergency services.
Not only is it dangerous but it can land you a fine and three points on your licence.
The minimum penalty for speeding[1] is a £100 fine and three penalty points added to your licence.
In certain circumstances, drivers will be eligible to attend a Driver Education Course, which will incur a cost, but you will not have penalty points added to your licence.
Speeding to save a few extra minutes just isn’t worth it. So please take time to plan your journey and allow extra time for unexpected delays such as traffic jams and diversions.#KnowTheLimits #BeSafe #GoSafe pic.twitter.com/UXUeQ6ZlQi[2][3][4][5]
— GanBwyll / GoSafe (@GoSafeCymru) July 26, 2023[6]The aim of the GoSafe partnership is to "make people safer on Welsh Roads by reducing casualties and saving lives".
So to keep drivers safe and reduce speeding, GoSafe has mapped the location of every single mobile speed camera set to be active in Wales in September 2023.

Speed limits on residential[7] roads across Wales were reduced to 20mph[8] from 30mph last month in an attempt to make streets safer and reduce the number of collisions and severe injuries.
A number of mobile and fixed speed cameras have been put in place across Powys to as part of the change ensure motorists are keeping to the new 20mph speed limit.
The location of these 20mph[9] speed cameras can be seen here[10].
