Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 September 2013
988. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will consider the installation of point to point speed cameras for sections of road with particular problems with speeding motorists; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37978/13]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, speed enforcement is central to the Road Safety Strategy 2013 - 2020, building on the work of previous Road Safety Strategies in this regard. A key component of the Strategy is the safety camera network and related enforcement activity by An Garda Síochána. The safety camera network service provider, Go Safe, provides 6,000 speed monitoring hours and 1,475 traffic survey hours per month across the country and is geared to identifying areas where speeding is taking place and addressing this issue. There are no plans at present to include point to point components in the safety camera network.
