Mobile speed cameras to be rolled out on the A96

Mobile speed cameras will be installed on the A96 Aberdeen to Inverness road, at Brodie.

The temporary unit is part of a £675,000 investment from Transport Scotland to install enforcement sites at well-known speeding sites across the country.

The cameras will be in place and operational from Monday, June 27.

Eric Dunion, unit manager for the north safety camera unit, said they hoped it would help reduce motorists’ frustration and improve road users’ safety.

“We are delighted to be able to enforce at the new location at Brodie,” he said. “We are aware that many motorists get frustrated along this road and many travel at excessive speeds and perform inappropriate manoeuvres.

“We have recently had a targeted radio campaign reminding motorists to adhere to the speed limits on the A96.

“We hope with regular mobile enforcement along the A96 that motorists will modify their behaviour and stick to the speed limits which are in place for the safety of all road users.’

Other cameras currently in operation

Several mobile speed cameras are currently in operation across the north and north-east.

Flexible cameras – in place for a maximum of three months – are currently on:

B9005 Fyvie to Methlick road, at Methlick

A836 Thurso road, at Forss

A93 Aberdeen to Braemar road, at Drumoak

A number of short-term cameras – used as a one-off or for seasonal reasons – will be in operation throughout the year. For the full list of where they may be, visit safetycameras.gov.scot
