Speedwatch Initiative

19th April 2024


The Parish Council has been contacted by PC James Phillips, who is inquiring whether residents would be interested in participating in a Community Speedwatch initiative.

This program requires a team of local residents who are willing to volunteer a small amount of time each week.

Volunteers will receive speed detection equipment to monitor vehicle speeds. When vehicles exceed the speed limit, the registered keepers will be contacted initially through a letter explaining the potential risks and consequences of their dangerous behaviour. Repeat offenders will receive a visit from the local police, regardless of their location. Beyond these friendly gestures, focused enforcement and criminal prosecution may follow based on the collated evidence.

If you would like to volunteer, please contact Teresa, the Parish Clerk, with your name and contact details at: clerk@downswoodpc.org   Teresa will then share your information with the Road Safety Unit. 

Many thanks
