Information is available for speed camera sites that have joined the Safety Camera Programme since it was first piloted from 2000-02. The increase in camera sites over this period therefore are a combination of new sites established by safety camera partnerships and sites that were operated by the police prior to the programme but accepted into the scheme.

Note: *As partnerships and the programme expands additional geographic areas will be included where camera sites were already operated by the police in conjunction with the roads authorities. In addition new sites will be established at sites where new casualty problems are emerging. Figures given are for all cameras sites accepted into the programme – new and pre-existing. These figures are based on information supplied by safety camera partnerships. Central Scotland is not currently part of the programme and therefore no figures are included for this area.
