Speed cameras suggested to tackle Ballabeg traffic problems

Speed cameras have been suggested as a possible solution to the traffic problems facing residents in Ballabeg.

The technology isn’t used on the Island, but was discussed as a way of enforcing speed limits at a public meeting last week.

The Department of Infrastructure’s Kevin Almond told villagers the most effective way of slowing people down is enforcement, and the easiest way to do that is using technology.

It comes after some complained that police weren’t performing enough speed checks in the village.
