Mobile speed camera locations across Leeds this week

This week, mobile speed cameras have been put into place across Leeds as the authorities attempt to reduce the number of accidents on the city's roads. The cameras are provided by the West Yorkshire Police Camera Enforcement Unit on the behalf of the West Yorkshire Safety Camera Partnership. These cameras are installed in two types of area, core camera sites and community concern site.

A core camera site is an area where there is a problem with speeding vehicles, where the authorities believe mobile speed cameras will help to reduce this. Meanwhile, community concern sites do not meet these criteria, but have been identified by local communities as areas of concern.

The cameras use a laser to determine the speeds of passing vehicles. This works in a variety of weather and light condtions. Here are the speed camera locations across Leeds this week.
