Following last month's announcement that new average speed cameras are to be installed between Lutterworth and Market Harborough, Leicestershire has started work on a batch of new ones.
The point-to-point cameras, due to be switched on in the summer, are part of a year's trial along key routes in Leicestershire. The initiative is reported to cost £500,000.
Councillor Blake Pain, the local authority's cabinet member for environment and transport, said: "I'm delighted that we're trialling the average speed enforcement, as we have a commitment to working to make our roads as safe as they can be. There are communities across the county whose lives are blighted by the effects of speeding motorists."
He added: "We have listened to what people have been telling us about the problem. Hopefully, the scheme will address the concerns of residents and make a positive change to drivers' behaviour."
The cameras will be located at:
B4114 Coventry Road and Leicester Road, Sharnford
A4303 Lutterworth Road, Walcote
A6 Harborough Road and Glen Road, Oadby
A50 Leicester Road, Markfield Road, Bradgate Hill, Groby
Burton Road, Measham
Beacon Road, Woodhouse Eaves
B676 Saxby Road, Wyfordby, Freeby
