News: Leeds Gets Digital Speed Cameras

pocketgpsworld.com
Digital speed cameras have been installed in West Yorkshire for the first time.

A stretch of road in Killingbeck, Leeds is now home to the cameras that can monitor traffic in two directions concurrently and wirelessly transfer images of speeding vehicles to a control hub.

Although this type of camera is pricey, the housing unit alone cost £10,000 to supplied and install, operating costs should be reduced considerably in comparison to old analogue technology cameras as there is no film to manually collect, transport and process.

Many more digital cameras are planned for West Yorkshire to replace the old stock over the coming years. 410 speed camera housings are currently in place in the county, but not necessarily in operation.
