Safety Cameras

Safety CameraWest Yorkshire's Safety Cameras are co-ordinated by the 'West Yorkshire Safety Camera Partnership' : www.safetycameraswestyorkshire.co.uk

The purpose of the West Yorkshire Safety Camera Partnership is to reduce deaths and serious injuries on the roads of West Yorkshire by reducing the level and severity of speeding and red light offences and to improve driving standards through education and enforcement.

This is done by installing road safety improvement measures at the worst casualty hotspots. These measures are for all road users and include installation of fixed speed control safety cameras, mobile safety camera patrols, and traffic signal cameras.

Speed and red light violation cameras play an important role in reducing road casualties. Roads where cameras are present consistently see collision reduction rates that are better than the rest of the road network.

Speed enforcement combats antisocial speeding, contributing towards safer communities.

The partnership is made up of the five Metropolitan District Councils of Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds and Wakefield along with West Yorkshire Police, and the Highways Agency. Read more on the West Yorkshire Safety Camera Partnership website : www.safetycameraswestyorkshire.co.uk
