Mobile speed cameras are being used across Bath and North East Somerset, including the Chew Valley, in an attempt to reduce dangerous, and fast drivers in rural areas.

In an effort to improve road safety, Avon and Somerset Police are cracking down on drivers across the area with an increased number of mobile speed cameras being seen.

Avon and Somerset Police cover a number of places with mobile speed camera vans in B&NES, with some areas set out for the Chew Valley. See all locations here.
