Police safety camera survey at Blackhall Rocks

Following two separate queries from residents reporting drivers exceeding the speed limit on the A1086 Coast Road at Blackhall Rocks I raised the issue with the traffic management office at Durham police.


The police agreed to deploy a safety camera at the location and have now supplied the outcome of the survey:

As promised below the A1086 was placed on my July list for attention by our mobile safety cameras.

During the visits to the site in July I would advise that only 37 drivers triggered the safety cameras:

0 drivers fell within our Process Level (Court action)

8 drivers fell within our Conditional offer level (fine and points)

29 drivers fell within our Speed Awareness Course level.
